PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources. Please ensure that the correct tools are used during the installation to avoid damage to the vehicle or product. Connects2 can not be held responsible for the installation of this product.

DASH DISASSEMBLY

Use a set of release keys to pry the head unit out of the dashboard. Dependent on the style of unit you have installed, you will need either single or double DIN keys. Once released, take out the unit and disconnect all the wiring.
Once the main head unit is out of the way, proceed to remove the highlighted screws. When done, proceed to fully remove the cage.
The highlighted area(s) on the inner dash will need to be cut out in order to allow the new double DIN unit to sit correctly.
When performing any modification to the vehicle, always ensure to measure where the stereo will sit and take due care when performing cuts to the vehicle. Connects2 always promotes the use and expertise of professional installers. Connects2 will not be held responsible for any damage to the vehicle.
Using the 4x phillips screws, take the brackets and line them up to the following posts on the rear of the new fascia panel and proceed to attach them to the relevant side.
Once the brackets are fixed to the fascia, take the new stereo and slide it in the back toward the opening. Lining the stereo up correctly, use the screws/washers within the kit to attach it according to the correct depth.
Once the kit has been assembled and the wiring for the stereo is completed, simply use the clips within the kit on the reverse of the fascia and proceed to clip it into place.

Before installing the interface, the factory stereo must be removed and disconnected. To do this, please consult the vehicle owner’s manual/handbook or contact a fitting professional.

For universal patch leads, prepare the wiring loops in accordance with the instruction manual supplied before installation.

Connect the 12 Pin connector from the stereo connection (patch) lead to the interface box.
