No worries. Only fiddly bit is configuring the multilead, where you have to select a manufacturer specific combination of cutting wire loops and selecting which fly lead to connect to the main harness. Straightforward if you have a stereo from a mainstream manufacturer.

Oh and tip - ground the 'park brake' wire to the chassis of the stereo, it avoids any weirdness where you can't use features of android auto or Apple carplay without the handbrake on.

Really helpful thread; I’m looking to fit a Pioneer SPH-DA160DAB in my new Jimny Commercial. Apart from the fascia, from connects2, what other leads should I buy? (will it be the same as previously listed on the thread?). I’m also looking to fit a reversing camera…any suggestions on make?

Thanks.

Yes, you'll need the leads/adapters mentioned previously, those will allow you to retain use of the steering wheel controls, DAB and FM antenna and the car USB socket.

I don't have any specific camera recommendations, you'll be able to fit any RCA connected camera, so no need for the overpriced Suzuki OEM camera and no adapter needed.

just fitted a pioneer head unit. I think I'm missing a Bluetooth harness/adaptor? as it's not active. DAB is dormant but always was crap, haven't taken it out for a drive yet.
