    I'm new to the forum, thanks for the add.

    I would like to know if someone can point me in the right direction regarding changing my jbl stereo for an aftermarket one regarding the wiring harness. Is there a plug and play for this? I've attached a pic of what the wiring harness of the truck and would like to know if there is a plug and play because I ordered the metra 70-1761 and it does not work. I can figure out and power up the unit using the battery/ignition and ground but can't figure out the wiring colors for the speakers. Please help. 20230730_205328.jpg 20230730_205323.jpg

    Depending on the new head unit I believe there are special wiring harnesses
    I have aftermarket in mine but was there when I got it
    Maybe Google your new unit and year of truck and wiring harnesses
    Ie *Sony model 'x11awesome' 08 tundra wiring harness

    Not sure if this will help but I am looking to replace stereo on my 2011 and in Crutchfield after you put in Make/Model they will list all of the other stuff you will need.

Aftermarket halo headlights with HID, various LED bulb replacements. 17" Fuel Blitz wheels with some 33" Nitto terra grapplers. Hoodscoop, nfab nerfbars, Bushwacker flares. No-name aftermarket grille, led fender extensions. Black Horse bambi-basher. Various offroad lights.
    As mentioned above, Crutchfield is a good resource, also James from Tech12volts in vendor list helps alot of our members. Be prepared, the JBL system is a pain in the ass in our 2nd gens, you probably wont regain full functionality of your speakers without using Maestro and/or bypassing/replacing oem amp and or speakers. Toyota/JBL decided special low impedence speakers (think its the front door ones) would be a fun addition to our trucks.
