Sorry, by "harness" I mean adapter. Yes, I used "Metra 70-1761 Radio Wiring Harness For Toyota 87-Up Power 4 Speaker"

and I used a bracket... But really it's just a gap filler...

I used this: Metra 95-8202 Toyota DDIN Multi Dash Kit

What I did was cut the mounting portions off the back of the dash kit, it fit pretty snug into the opening in the dash piece.. I merely took some clear silicone and "glued" it from the back. Not in between the pieces, just coated the back sides and let it dry over night. The metal bracket for the factory radio fits right on the new unit and perfectly in place.

You can see here, though the I'm going to redo the red dash as I'm not happy with my amateur PlastiDip creation...



The peices are only attached to the dash via the silicone so when I take the dash off those come with it.
