You'll probably have more luck asking this question in the "Electronics" section. There's several stereo experts there.

Just did mine. If you have an amp and aren’t replacing the speakers then the install is pretty simple. If you are replacing speakers then you have to connect wires to the harness. Mine was a head unit only so fairly straight forward.

What new stereo unit did end up going with? Thx.

Fusion. I have the 650. Plug and play from the 2001 old clarion. Used the original Amp but upgraded the speakers to Fusion too.

Will the Fusion 650 except JL audio speakers??

Unless I’m mistaken I have some older JL’s and they are working just fine.
