I fitted into my 2013 Dodge GrandCaravan and also added a rear view camera! Everything works exceptionally well including the factory steering wheel control I am now Wazing and enjoying my music in my car!! here are my parts used (sorry, being a new user means I can't post any links) 0: Atoto A6 2GB/32GB Unit -- 1. Steering wheel control -- 2. Rear View Camera -- 3. Dodge Installation Trim Kit including Antenna adapter 4. Soldering iron and solder 5. PAC Radio Replacement Interface -- 6. Trim Panel removal tool -- 7. Dremel tool set (You need some cutting) -- 8. Wire stripper -- 9. Multi meter -- 10. Electrical tape -- 11. 3.5MM jack to three pin connector, (look for it in Radio Shack) Now, get to installation, 1. pulling the factory radio is pretty easy, you just use the trim removal tool to get the radio panel off and then unscrew the four screws holding the radio in place. Once remove the screws, gently pull the radio out and disconnect the factory harness and radio connector, the radio connector is pretty fragile, be careful not to break it... 2. Connect the harnesses, open the PAC harness package, you need to determine which harness to use, for my car, it was the one with slightly bigger connector, try it on the factor harness first. Then lay down the color/wire mapping on your desk and start connecting the wires, PAC did not actually strip the wires so you need to do it, after strip the wires, gently twist so they connect better, then chris cross on with the ATOTO wires and solder the wires on, I like to put my soldering gun under the wire to heat them up and let them soak the solder rather than melt the solder using the iron, better conenction.. After solder, use tape to mask up the bare wires, you will connect all wires except three, the thin Ground wire, KEY 1, and KEY, go ahead and cover up KEY 1, you dont need that . Like picture 1 3. Wrap the harness, go ahead and wrap the harness so the wires dont go crazy 4. Install Steering wheel control (optional), open the PAC SWI unit package, and turn the dial to 7 before you do anything else, TURN THE DIAL TO 7 first. Then connect the 7pin connector (white) comes out from your PAC interface to your SWI unit, go to your vehicle, connect to factory harness and follow instructions from PAC (every car is different, you need to follow the factory instructions) and program it, then use the multiulmeter to find the pins output the resistive differences (this is a bit tricky, my suggestion is to solder wires to each pins on the 3.5mm connector (see pic 2) and then use your multi meter find which two wires output resistive values when you press a button) after you find the two wires, connect them to thin black ground wire and KEY wire (NOT KEY1), and then fire up the ATOTO unit and go to DEFAULT SETTINGS -- STEERING WHEEL CONTROL and see if it registers the presses, if not, swap the wires (because there is no clear way to tell which one is ground...) after you confirm its working, solder the KEY and ground wire 5. Placing the antennas, place them anywhere you like, even including inside the radio hole, but I went ahead and place the antennas across the trim and near the wind shield on the driver side so they get better reception. 6. Actually installation, because ATOTO is slightly higher than stock unit you need to do a bit cutting, first cut the TRIM Kit side panel about 2mm from both sides, then use Dremel to trim down the top and bottom notch of the stock Trim piece or until it fits 7. Back up camera is also fairly easy, hook it up with the reverse light and tuck the cable under the trim and you are good to go Hope it is helpful, please leave me a message if you need any help!

Edit: was 3 star based on review below this one. So I returned this harness to Amazon after I called CS. They are always so helpful!! I bought a new harness while on the phone with him. He then sent it overnight at no charge since I told him my vehicle was torn apart while waiting on the new harness. The new harness arrived next day as promised and fairly early too. Wired everything up again and Boom! Same problem which essentially narrows the problem to the stereo. In the end I just disconnected the reverse wire and forfeited the ability to view my back up camera. The stereo is a Boss and was fairly cheap. I decided not to return it since I’ve gone a lifetime without a back up cam. The Boss does most everything else pretty well but that’s a different review. In the end, harness gets 5 stars as it does what it is supposed to and is easily wired and easy to understand instructions. Original review: Bought this for my 08 Wrangler. Got everything wired up, plugged it in and all I got was an image of my reverse camera and LOUD static through speakers. Nothing else worked on the stereo (Boss Audio). Even volume knob wouldn’t turn down the static and no other buttons or functions worked. So I did a search on internet but found nothing. I thought my stereo was bad. Went to PAC website and managed to find the revision history. Even though this is version 1.1.7, which was supposed to have fixed an issue where on manual transmission vehicles, it would put out a faulty reverse signal, I decided to cut my connection to the reverse wire and lo and behold, stereo booted up normally and worked fine. So am waiting for a replacement harness to complete my install and meanwhile my Jeep sits unassembled as I wait. It gets 3 stars for just being an available product necessary to install aftermarket radio on Jeep. Once reverse wire problem is corrected, it will be 5 stars. Instructions were very helpful!!

I have to deduct a star just for the price of it. I know your paying for ease of installation, but also receive extra harness that is not needed. Might save a little money if they sold specifically the harness you need instead of the set. Also, would have liked to see pre-installed crimp connections so it was install ready or at least included them. The instructions were fairly straight forward with standard knowledge of radio install. Biggest benefit to using this product was that I could bring everything inside the house to work on instead of doing electrical connections out inside the dash. In my case in the cold as well. All in all I am happy with the product, everything connected and is in working order. Takes a bit of shifting to get all the added wires back into the dash. Read more

Worked flawlessly. Seems to be a great value for your money. I put it on a 2006 Dodge ram 3500. If for some reason you’re not getting sound check your radio I had a problem with my radio. It was brand new and didn’t have sound once I replaced the radio. It worked fine. Read more

I have been using this interface for my aftermarket Pioneer AVH-4300DVD headunit in combination with my 2008 Jeep Patriot with Bostno Acoustics Sound Upgrade and it works flawlesslessly. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand, you just need to match up the colors of the interface with the colors of your headunit. I personally decided to solder the wires together because it was very easy and I wanted this interface to be permanent. That being said, I don't see any reason why you can't just connect the wires with the crimp-style wire connectors and it will work exactly the same. I have owned this product for over a year now and it is still working like the day it was purchased. Also, this is the best price you will find for this interface on the internet. Finally, very fast shipping as well. Easily deserves 5 stars. Read more
