Again, I'm not sure on any of these Amazon.com harnesses. I did note it says "For select 1987-2007 Toyota and Scion vehicles" which would not include our cars. It's possible it would, but I couldn't say for sure. I really do recommend sticking to a Crutchfield harness - as Dadhawk mentioned, they're cleaner and save a lot of time in the end.

Unfortunately a lot of them use speed and not a parking brake lock now.

Great write-up @TheLaughingMan. I've used the Crutchfield harnesses on the last couple of installs I've done. They are real time-savers and much cleaner.
Thanks! I'm glad to see the write-up is hopefully helping some people out. I can't imagine using this headunit without the bypass. I do find that Spotify still locks me out sometimes from scrolling around too much - it must be doing that based on speed or something like you said.
