Stereo help..

[WOOSAB]

So the original stereo that came with my 2008 sx230 finally went out. So I figured I mise well go ahead and change out the speakers add some amps ect. I went out and purchased several JL audio marine 6.5 same speakers I use in my harley. Cut several holes on the inside of the boat and on swim deck to add speakers. Get my speakers in start running lines ect. Take the old deck out and realize it's not plug and play. Recently took a kenwood head unit out of harley so figured I'd use it here.. anyone know the wiring harness code or to any head unit that's plug and play?

I just installed a new Kenwood deck in my boat yesterday. Looking through the manual I do not see a part number for listed anywhere.

When I did mine I soldered all the new HU wires to the plug from the boat so it was plug and play after that.

 

[JC6275]

If I am understand correct he dors not have the plug for the HU he is wanting to install.

Okay sorry for the confusion on my end.

I have the plug it just doesn't have all the same wires.. was just hoping they made a plug or adaptor to make it plug and play.. thought this project was going to be a 1 nite thing.. smh

I see, I apologize. I had the same problem yesterday while installing my HU, it went pretty quick though snip soilder heat shrink, repeat, repeat , repeat.

It isn't that bad, here is the diagram for the JBL you took out its 11 wires to solder or crimp together. I know it's a little more work but not that bad. Hope this helps.

If you are running amps you only need to worry about the blue, red, yellow, and black wires....

Yea guess I'm going to have to start cutting and crimping wires together
