180sx Head Unit Wiring!?

[BlazeSX]

i have 2x single din carrozeria units in the car (1tape/1 cd), which i want to take out and replace with a different head unit.....

but the wiring back there looks f**cking busy at best :wack:

anyone have a wiring diagram or something to help?

[redsx94!]

a uk iso adapter from halfords or something should plug straight in

[BlazeSX]

is that like a jdm - uk iso adaptor?

No, the audio loom on the 180SX is virtually identical to the 200SX, and indeed almost every Nissan car produced at the time. Heck probably even now. :D

The real question is whether it's been modified at all. You may find it already has an adapter installed. You will almost certainly need to find a good earth too :rolleyes:

Can you take a picture of the wiring with the units removed? It should be fairly easy to see if it's been modified or not.

yeah i'll take a snap soon, doesnt look modified though, cheers mate

i had a double din in myne and the wiring at the back looked kinda dodgy, 1 or 2 loose and a couple cut and joined together and i just got an adater set in halfords for a nissan and it worked mint with my new cd player. worth a shot

Mine consisted purly of bullet connectors when I swapped the sterio so you're already a few steps ahead! :wack:

I'll be taking it apart again soon as the current sterio doesn't like my suspension too much - If you can wait a few weeks for me to have all the parts I'm trying to collect then I can try and get pictures of all the wires plus labels :thumbs:

As long as it's still got the original Nissan wiring connectors then you can buy a Nissan>ISO adapter for it - if it's a Kouki they're different though, as I found out when I wired up my original Nissan wiring plugs to my head unit and tried to fit it :wack:

thanks for the help guys, feel like an idiot for starting this thread as i unplugged the twin din stereo the other day.......it was only 2 plugs! :wack:
(although to be fair it really did look like spaghetti junction back there!)

gonna get an iso soon as now anyway :thumbs:

the iso adapter from halfords will be the new micra one, ive not long fitted one to my car
