Install the New Radio

• 1). Plug the two stereo wiring connectors into the leads of the wiring harness adapter.
  
  
• 2). Slide the new radio's installation cage into the empty stereo mounting dock in the dash of the Toyota. Feed the stereo wiring (now connected to the wiring harness) and the antenna cable through the cage.
  
  
• 3). Plug the wiring harness adapter leads into the outlets on the left side of the new radio's rear panel. Plug the antenna cable into the outlet labeled "FM antenna" on the bottom right corner of the radio's rear panel.
  
  
• 4). Slide the radio into the installation cage until it snaps into place.
  
  
• 5). Place the trim panel round the stereo and climate control panel. Press firmly around the perimeter of the panel to snap it back into place on the Toyota's dashboard. Return to the engine compartment.
  
  
• 6). Place the negative battery cable back around the negative battery lead post. Tighten the cable to the post with the wrench. Close the hood.
