Replacing Stock Radio - wheres the VSS wire?

[Dennis.Moore]

Replacing my Clarion stock radio with a JVC 7" DVD GPS Reciever KW-NT800HDT

 

Had to pop out the right hand vent (use a plastic tool to prevent marring the dash).

That exposed the two right radio panel screws.

 

Had to pull drivers side kick plate (one screw under fuse block panel and pop it off) to expose

one screw on right side of instrument panel cover (pop it off)

 

That exposes the two left screws of the radio panel cover.

remove four cover screws and you find four radio screws.

 

Clarion radio had a power/speaker wire plug

I ordered an adapter - Scosche NN04B 2007-Up Nissan Car Stereo Connector

 

also had an antenna plug

I ordered it's adapter- Scosche NAA2B 2007 Nissan Antenna Adapter

 

Ran rear speaker wires under door floor plates that popped up.

Around the pillar by lifting cover (near seat belt mount) out a bit.

and popping off lower right passenger side floor kick plate (pops out)

also ran my Bazooka boom box wires and rear view camera wires in that path.

 

Was able to run the gps wire up the drivers side by removing the pillar cover (pops out)

and the little speaker grill then tucking wire between window and dash and mounting it in the center under the window.

 

May replace the door speakers (4"X6") and add 3.5" dash speakers.

 

Now I'm searching for the vehicle speed sensor wire.

 

anyone know where it is?

How much time and difficult was it to switch out these components?

[Dennis.Moore]

takes all day if you've got all the parts

 

I've been riding around all week with my dashboard dissembled

Still no answer n the VSS wire :-/

I looked there. They wanted $210.00

[axulsuv]

you can access the manual for like $20.00 for a 24 hour time period , That's where I got my harness and plug info for my stereo ... you where looking at a different option , I don't remember how to locate it , but there is a option to gain access for 24 hrs. instead of buying the whole package ....

Hi Dennis, any luck with the vss wire? I am replacing my stock radio too with JVC kw-nt300. Stock radio has speed button control so it has to be by the harness. Question is witch color. Thanks.

The vss wire is the PINK ( pinout number 18 next to the black ) wire on the existing car harness. Tested and working on my Nav system. Good luck with yours.

Which wires are for the backup cam into the head unit. I see from the rear of the truck the cam goes into purple, yellow, black, and white. Also look I g for what each color is for.
