I use this for a Toyota Yaris Sedan 2010. Works perfect with a Pioneer (16 pin socket), easy install. The best: the cable colors are the same than Pioneer stereos, in that way is even more easy install it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worked perfectly on my 99 Toyota 4 Runner to add a touch screen radio
Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2024
Wanted to update my 99 4Runner with a touchscreen radio with Carplay for music, navigation and able to answer my iphone hands free if needed. These wires fit perfectly into my existing radio harness so did not have to modify the factory wiring. I used solder seal connectors and just matched the new radio's wires with these harness wires. All works great so far. Price was very reasonable and was shipped very quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars I highly recommend using the harness to put an aftermarket car stereo ...
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2015
Simply put I would never do an install without the Metra harness. I highly recommend using the harness to put an aftermarket car stereo into your Toyota ....
1) With both the new car stereo and Metra harness in hand I was able to begin my wire connections in the comfort of my home so that the installation would be a plug-n-play once I went to remove the old and install the new. I was able to work with all the tools and materials in home as opposed to battling space, lighting and/or the weather in the car.
2) If you use the Metra harness you'll preseve original Toyota harness(es) which means if for whatever reason you can plug-and-play between the old and new stereos .. for example you install the new stereo then later go to sell the car and determine to keep your new stereo and so you reinstall the old stereo. This is easily done having kept your Toyota harness in place as opposed to clipping and hard-wiring. 3) You never know when you might need the original harness connectors in place. Below is a cut-n-paste of the product review I did for my Pioneer receiver I installed where I highlight the Metra harness I used. The close of my write up share a comical look at how I had to use my old Toyota connectors and where the Metra harness made that possible.

Here is a copy-n-paste of another review I did that gives a real life application using the Metra harness ...

(Product Review for Pioneer FH-X820BS CD Receiver)
Simple to install. Tools I used: philips screwdriver, 10mm rachet, and a trim pry tool (most folks just use a flathead screwdriver). I installed my Pioneer FH-X820BS into a 2001 Toyota Camry which had an OEM Toyota 16814 CD/AM/FM Receiver. To help I purchased the Metra 70-1761 wiring harness to simplify the wire connections. I recommend getting the right Metra harness for your car to simplify connecting the right wires to your car's wires plus an added benefit of being able (as I did) to connect all your wires in the comfort of your home/shop as opposed to dragging your tools and materials to the car where you might battle the heat (such was my case) or cold or poor lighting (else run down your car battery). When making your wire connections be sure to use crimps, tape or zip ties to secure all connections considering a need to pull the Pioneer unit back out at a later date for whatever reason; I used a small zip tie for every 2 wires I connected together and 1 large zip tie to bundle all wires together. When Installing the microphone be sure to leave enough slack in the wire behind the receiver should you need to pull the unit out at a later date. I also installed a new siriusxm receiver at the same time and in doing so I was again cautious to leave enough slack in the wiring for the sirius receiver behind the Pioneer receiver. Having already wired the Pioneer harness to the Metra harness (in the comfort of my home) I began to remove the old car stereo using a trim pry bar to pull away the trim from the front of the stereo which disclosed (4) 10mm hex nuts securing the stereo harness. I removed the hex nuts and then pulled the stereo. I then disconnected 2 Toyo wiring harnesses and the antennae wire from the back of the old stereo. I removed the stereo brackets on the old stereo and placed on the new Pioneer receiver. Next I connected the 2 Metra harnesses to the 2 Toyota connectors and began plugging everything into the back of the Pioneer receiver ... wiring harness, antennae wire, microphone wire, and sirius receiver wire. I pushed the new unit into placed and secured with the 4 hex nuts. I replaced the trim and was done.

To add a little humor and real life to support some suggestions above ... just when I thought I was done I realized I left a CD inside of the old receiver which I wanted t keep. Remember when I said to secure your cables should you ever need to remove your new unit "for whatever reason" .. so, yes I uninstalled the new unit, plugged the old unit back in to power it up and eject the CD. BTW this exercise proved to be yet one more benefit to using the Metra harness ... by using a Metra harness and preserving the OEM Toyo harness I was able to truly plug-n-play both the old equipment and new equipment. Odds are if I sell this car I'll pull the Pioneer receiver and plug the old one back in which will be simple given the Metra harness.

4.0 out of 5 stars Before saying "they don't fit," carefully look further...
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2015
2004 Sienna. I was upgrading the original stereo/JBL system with Planet Audio P9640B. The original stereo had 20-pin socket (relatively big), 12-pin socket (small) and another 20-pin (small) socket. Got both 70-1761 and 70-8113 because I wasn't sure. First tried 70-8113 for the bigger 20-pin connector. It fit but no sound was coming out. Next, I tried to connect 70-1761 but these connectors were completely different from the 12-pin and 20-pin harnesses. I was really confused because about 90% reviews gave 4 or 5 stars and said they fit perfectly. about 10% or less reviews said they don't fit and completely different connectors, which was exactly what I was experiencing..... I really didn't want to be one of those clueless 10%.... After hours of googling and searching, browsing, I almost gave up, then deep down in the search results (like 4 pages back) from siennachat.com, someone mentioned this "there's a separate amplifier down low, back behind the bottom area of the central console, so below the radio and closer to the front of the van. When replacing the OEM head unit with one that provides its own amplification, one must unplug the 10-pin and 6-pin connectors going *into* the amplifier, then connect the commonly mentioned Metra 70-1761 to the 10-pin and 6-pin connectors you unplugged. From there, you should be able to follow the usual instructions that make no sense when you're staring at the 12-pin and 15-pin connectors you pulled out of the OEM head unit. It took me forever to piece all of this together." Wow... this was it! Followed this instruction and connected all the speaker wires and power wires, then, everything worked perfectly. (Here, he said 12-pin and 15-pin as opposed to 12-pin and 20-pin, maybe his was a bit different in the pin-setting, anyhow, regardless of this small difference, that's exactly how to use Metra 70-1761.

Cheap and working great, but why 4 stars? Because there's no instruction whatsoever, and I had to spend almost 2 days figure this out....
