Why Choose This Product?
The 70-5519 is designed to simplify the vehicle-side connection during an aftermarket radio installation. Its adapter plugs into the original radio connectors, so you do not need to cut those factory wires, and it retains the factory amplifier.
The radio-side wires still need to be connected or soldered to your receiver. This harness addresses the amplifier and radio wiring connection; it does not establish that other factory features will be retained.
