Title: Good fit, worked perfectly.
Review: Installed an aftermarket CD Bluetooth radio in my 1995 Mazda B4000. Which behind the Mazda badges is all Ford Ranger. This Wiring harness fit like a charm. I used some heat shrink connectors for the wires. My truck had the “premium” sound package from the factory which means it has a built in amplifier. Since 1 more connection was needed, I had to use the automatic antenna wire for the amplifier connection which is not a problem since that wire was unneeded for the antenna. 4 months in and its still working great. Highly recommend this radio wiring harness.

Title: Worked as advertised
Review: Wire for wire on a 1996 Ford Ranger STX. Note on the older vehicles the blue and white Amp On wire needs to be wired 8nto the red wire or you will get no sound.

Title: Just what I needed (1997 Ford Ranger)
Review: This item was almost perfect and just what I needed for the installation of my Dual-DIN stereo into my 1997 Ford Ranger. It would have been nice if the black ground wire without the connector on the end was just a little longer (maybe 2-3 inches) but other than that it worked great and was easy to integrate with the harness for my new stereo.**One thing to note!!!**I didn’t know my truck had an amp in it, and so after I got everything hooked up, I had no sound coming from the speakers. Did some research and found that my truck has a built-in amp and I needed to connect the “AMP ON” wire – once I did that, everything worked great.

Title: Perfect and easy
Review: I would not have believed that a $5 product could be so satisfying. This worked, simply, GREAT. The lines are color-coded to EIA standards, which happen to be the same standards as used for my new radio connector. Match the colors, splice the wires, plug in the harness: MAGIC, the dang radio just worked perfectly the first time I turned it on. (The wires are even imprinted with the function, like Front-Left+ etc.)NOTE: this harness set is designed to plug into the cable in the vehicle (not the radio), and be wired to the plug going to the new radio. So the new setup looks like this: vehicle-plug/harness-receptacle/splice/new-radio-plug.I’m a EE, but you can use this if all you know is how to read and crimp a splice. I am a Very happy customer.

Review: For starters, the wiring for the power plug for my 96 Ford Explorer was wrong. Fortunately I had a second wiring kit that had the right plug. The speaker adapter was the correct connection, but after spending hours trying to diagnose why I was getting no sound to my speakers, I eventually figured out that this harness wasn’t letting the factory plug go deep enough to properly engage the pins on this plug.This product was a complete waste of time and money.
