Connecting car stereo in Toyota Starlet



So I was going to swap stereo between my two cars. This is some pictures of it.

This is the Kia Pride stereo outlet. Everything is ISO ready. Very easy to disconnect the stereo.
I also removed the steel cage.

Here you see the ISO-standard. Everything except the antenna goes to this contact.

However on the Starlet, it was not the original. Some "moron" had tampered with the cables, and also cut cables and so on..  I had to find the ignition cable (grey) and then found some permanent 12v plus so the stereo remembers the volume and tracknumber when turning the ignition of. The yellow read one is now connected permanently to 12v +. And the red goes to the grey cable (ignition 12v +)

Here you see the cables cut. And still the moron who connected the previous cable did route some new cables. The old stereo had permanently connected power. But the newer Pioneer would then always be illuminated if I used that. So I had fix that.

Well finally everything work like it should. Pioneer stereo with USB in the Toyota Starlet..
