Hyundai ILoad factory stereo

exwesty, Nov 24, 9:46am
Has anyone pulled apart the radio or dash to access the rear wiring loom from the unit to be able to install additional speakers?

Being the tradie van they don't factory wire any wiring to the rear of the van so I assume that there are wires in behind the dash from the unit i'd like to get my paws on.

What trim did you remove to get to the rear of the radio?

Start at the join just above the ashtray, slot 2 thin screwdrivers in there and pry open. Work your way up and it will separate just above the gear lever. Look in there and you will see 3 Phillips screws. Remove them and pry the fascia off evenly all the way to the top.
You will then see the screws that hold the stereo in place.
Remove them and the bracket covering up the wiring diagram.
On the rear of the stereo there will be 2 plugs and an aeriel wire.
Remove the aerial and the plug with 2 rows of 4 medium gauge wires (as well as a few thin gauge wires) Those 2 rows of 4 are your front/rear + & - wires.
If you remove the second plug (the one with the larger red wire) you will cut the power to the stereo and causing the security feature to occur and you will need to have the pin code on hand to reset it.
If you still have questions, dont hesitate to ask.

Sweet. I'll have a look in the next couple of days.

exwesty. I installed my rear speakers today (post #2) and they are the perfect accompaniment to the front components. They sound outstanding.
The most difficult part was deciding where to install them so they wouldnt be in the way.
I attached them to the bars at the rear of the side windows. foto https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428891486.jpg I dont know what you do for a crust or if the van is yours or a company one but I have loaded a couple of fotos of mine if you want some ideas for fitting it out. https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428891769.jpg https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428892288.jpg https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428892559.jpg Big drawer slides out onto trolley and 2 bikes go in its place. https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428895747.jpg https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/428896314.jpg
If I can be of any more help, please feel free to ask.
