[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8710000, member: 679555"] Yeah, I did some reading on it and it's pretty comprehensive. It seems like you might be able to get away with doing all of your soldering on the radio side of the harness. There's a video on youtube showing a guy that didn't do that, but if there's continuity through the harness there's no reason to tap the car's side of that. The only situation where you might have to modify the car itself is if there's a blank spot on the radio harness's connector so it's not passing the wire you need. In that case I would modify the radio's harness to include the pin in question and connect the adapter's wire to the new pin instead. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-1060-20-0222.html[/URL] They're just standard connectors like this forced into the back of the harness after being crimped. This is the preferable way in my opinion if you can achieve continuity through to the wire they want you to tap. [/QUOTE]
