    I have a 2006 SR5 Double cab and the radio and CD player have finally failed. I bought a new unit from Crutchfield but the wiring instructions don't match the color coding on the harness adapter that came with it. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a Non JBL system?

    I'm not clear on what you're saying. Picture is worth a thousand words. Can you show a picture of what you're dealing with?

    You should really check if you have a factory amp so you know how to proceed. I highly recommend reading THIS THREAD, scroll to the "audio and audio upgrades" section.

    Specifically this part is important, but I reading all of it:
    • Before you install an aftermarket head unit, you need to identify whether your truck has the external amplifier, because you'll need to bypass it if it's there, else fade/balance won't work, or you just won't get sound! Read this thread for more info on the factory amp and where to find it if you have one, and what you need to do to install an aftermarket stereo. There are ways to retain the factory amp if you really want to, but ... just read that thread and its replies. To see what adapters you need (if you have an amp) check this post. To see what aftermarket radio others on here are running, read this thread. DISCLAIMER: Confirm fitment of any part numbers provided here by going to Crutchfield's or Metra's website before you commit to buying!

    Did you not get/buy a harness with your radio? or are you going to cut the trucks radio connector off and hardwire it in? Please dont do that!
