im about to buy a 1999 headunit for my 1995 maxima because it broke and yadda yadda. I looked at a picture of the back of the 1999 headunit and the plugs were different and ive been told i need adaptors? Where can i get these adaptors and for how much? thats all, thanks

dealer, they aren't too spendy. You'll need to cut and splice the 95 wires and match it up with the 99 harness. Use the wire label on the HU's to figure out which wire from the 95 should connect to the 99 harness. Its just as easy as buying an aftermarket HU and using a wiring harness to connect it to the OEM harness.

should not take long at all, you just have to treat it like anyother aftermarket headunit, get the wireing harness and wire it up. should work great

its not hard, you'll just want to get the harness for the 99 HU, and get a wiring diagram for your car, the stock harness, and match the wires up, splice them together, and wrap em with tape.

my dad is acting like the wires might not all match up and that it wont sound good since its not made for the 95s setup. (hes just assuming) can anyone give me reassurance? is the setup the same or is the sound going to be worse because the speaker set up differs too much from the 95 to the 99

wow, dude, go on down to the audio section on here, and ask them, youve got alot to learn. the harness is all the wires you need, that run into a plug, which you can plug into the back of your headunit, youll need to find a factory 99 bose harness, you can check ebay or go to a junkyard
