 Easy to Use, No Subwoofer Wiring for Acura TL Jul 31, 2011
By R. Denton
I recently used this wiring harness to install a JVC KW-XR810 head unit in my 2002 Acura TL S-Type.
The wiring harness worked well and was easy to use. It was nice that all of the wires came pre-cut and ready to strip. The packaging also had a wiring guide on the back that explained what each wire's purpose was. This was helpful because all I had to do was match up the corresponding wires from the new head unit harness to the Metra harness.
To be clear, you technically do not need to purchase this harness. This harness wires to the wiring harness for your aftermarket head unit and then plugs into your car's wiring harness. The benefits of this wiring harness are that you do not need to cut into your factory wiring and that you can do all of your wiring while you are seated comfortably at a table inside your house and then just connect the plugs in the car. So, while you don't need this to do the job, it is definitely worth the money for the convenience and for the reduced chance of failure.
One thing I must point out is that this device is only wired to support 4 speakers (front L & R, rear L & R) so if your car has a factory subwoofer (i.e. a fifth speaker), this wiring harness will not support it. Also, I've looked around and there is not an aftermarket wiring harness out there that does support the subwoofer. Rather, what you have to do is run a RCA out of your new head unit and splice it into the subwoofer line for your car. There are plenty of "how-to's" floating around on the web. I was able to find one for my Acura TL and I have the factory subwoofer working now.
Overall, I would recommend this. It works perfectly and is great for the price.
-Cheers!

Not a bad product. I would only buy this if you ever plan on installing your factory radio again. You still have to splice the wires to hook it up to the aftermarket radio (therefor it adds an extra 6-8" of wires in your dash....bulky!). I would recommend cutting the factory wire harness and splicing the wires yourself to your new radio. And I highly recommend getting the "Posi-Product Twist-Lock" wire connectors directly from Crutchfield (they're cheaper/contain more then any other online place).
I hope this info helps you guys.

 Did Not Fit 99 Acura CL Aug 14, 2010
By Andrew C. Palmer
"Alt Rock Music Fan"
Bought this harness for a 99 Acura CL, as it advertises for Acura 98 and up models. Took an hour to install on to new stereo, just to find out the harness inside the dash is not even close to this size. Need to clarify what models this will fit.

This is not an official metra cable, but rather a clone. Real metra cables have a light blue connector or reference MetraOnline.com
Although it fit in Honda Accord 2007, cable was missing antenna power wire. If you get no AM and terrible FM reception, check the power wire. Although you can splice it yourself, doesn't that defeat the purpose. Official cable had the right wire.
