I'm getting ready to install an aftermarket stereo on my 2008 STi and I'm wondering if any of you have a wiring diagram for the stock stereo (non-navigation).

I could figure it out through trial and error, but I'd rather go into the process knowing what I'm getting into.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Same here, please anyone.

There are two good threads on nasioc that go into detail about this. search 08 and AVIC in the car audio forum and you will find them.

I believe that this is the post your talking about.

This seems to be up to snuff. I'll be soldering this weekend, and will let you know if all goes well. Thanks for your help.

The wiring diagram listed above is accurate, with one small note.

I don't know if this occurred because I had the factory bass upgrade, but the wiring harness referenced above was not connected to the back of the stereo. There were also some additional ground wires connected to the side of the stereo.

When I followed the wiring harness connected to the stereo back a bit I found a second harness. The second harness was an exact match for what is posted above. I solder the stereo harness in accordance with the link posted above, and connected to the second harness, not the first one that was connected to the stereo.

Everything worked perfectly.
