## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job, I was just unclear as to wether I needed the amp out plug
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 27, 2018*

Just bought a ‘04 Lincoln Town Car and didn’t know wether it had an amp/sub or not(couldn’t speak with original owner as it was purchased through a family member and the manual was missing) so I went with this harness because if I didn’t need the amp out harness no big deal, but if I did...well then I’d need it lol. The harness itself is perfect for what it is, a simple harness to prevent cutting and splicing the OEM harness, wires were clearly marked and colors matched the harness for the after market stereo. Went with the Pioneer AVH-X490BS, if you get a pioneer look into getting the parking brake bypass switch.The only problem is that there was nowhere to connect the two blue wires on the harness with the RCA plugs, so I assumed I didn’t need it and just didn’t use it. Reconnected negative terminal on battery and tested radio and it worked great so I figured I was right. I go to install the Infinity Kappa speakers in the rear deck(btw if you have a Town Car be ready to take out the entire rear seat, both bottom and rear cushions to get access to the speakers......) and guess what I see?? A sub and amp.... I was planning on getting an amp for the speakers anyways, and maybe a 8” sub just for a little bass so I’ll just wait to get them rather than hook up the factory amp/sub.If you're replacing a radio you can’t go wrong with Metra, always quality products. Been using them as long as I can remember, and between work, my personal vehicles and friends/family I’ve installed more car stereos and speakers than I can remember and never had an issue with Metra.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It worked perfect
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 17, 2026*

Worked with my radio just like it should

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fit for 2008 Hyundai Sonata
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 27, 2025*

Even thought this is labeled for Ford, this was a perfect fit for my 2008 Hyundai Sonata. This item comes with two adapters, I did not need to use the harness with the smaller adapter, I believe this might be to connect an amp which I did not need. I was struggling to find the correct adapter for the 2008 Hyundai Sonata because searching on amazon and google were not leading me to this adapter from Metra since it is labeled for Ford. I came across a youtube video with a guy working on the Hyundai Sonata 2008 and he was using this specific cable model Metra 70-5521 on his stereo. So I decided to order it after searching it up and comparing the adapter to the car's factory adapter. It worked out great because it was a perfect fit. I youtubed enough about the basics of wiring cables together, what the different colors mean, pros and cons of wiring directly to the factory unit wiring (using no adapter). I found videos of others removing the stereo for my specific car (I didnt want to just pry it apart and damage something). Then I went the method of butt connectors to link the wires from this harness to the cables of the stereo unit. The connection quality is strong, the cables from this harness are sturdy so they link well. I used it to adapt an aftermarket radio (BOSS Audio Systems 616UAB single din) using the car's existing factory wiring and connectors. I got the single din install kit (Metra 99-7320). I also got the LeeKooLuu Backup Camera and wired it to the Reverse tail light. I installed this for my girlfriend and it passed her approval test. Everything came together perfectly.
