The Ultimate Car Stereo Installation Guide ~ Upgrade Your Tape Player

This is the ultimate how to guide for installing a new radio in your car. Today we are upgrading the Tape and CD player in the R32 to a touch screen radio with CarPlay and Android Auto. We will remove the OEM radio, wire in adapter harness with power retentions and Monsoon Amp connection, test and install a new radio! We use the proper vehicle harness adapter to prevent cutting factory harness, neatly perform wire splicing and tape the harness. Car radio install is one of my favorite car mods!
