[QUOTE="DIYing but kinda dying, post: 8678515, member: 677405"] I'm putting an aftermarket head unit in a 1996 Crown Victoria--or at least trying to. I cannot find the proper adapter harness to connect the aftermarket radio to factory wiring. The stock radio has 2 plugs going in the back. 1 is the standard gray 8-pin Ford that's used in numerous models and is easy to find. The other is this weird little 16 pin plug that only uses 8 of the pins. Images attached. I've taken this car into numerous car audio places, asked Crutchfield, and no one seems to know where to find a harness that fits this thing. I was recommended numerous Metra harnesses, but nothing has fit. Note the placement of the receivers for pins connecting from the stereo/adapter. Car info: 1996 Crown Vic, base model, no premium sound system, no factory amplifier. Any help or recommendations is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
