Default Aftermarket Stereo install HELP!!!

Hi all!

I purchased a Pioneer AVH-X4500BT and a mounting bracket for my lexus gx 470, but im just worried about what kind of wire harness i would need for everything to be compatible. I live on Guam and have no access to a best buy or pepboys or anything of like that. Can anyone help me out please! Thanks so much!

I too live on Guam and just bought a 2008 GX470. I have the non nav with ML. I plan on adding an aftermarket in dash nav plus backup camera. Let me know how it turns out. Maybe order the wire harness from Crutchfield?

I checked Crutchfield for a 2005 GX harness. I've been using them since the mid-90s and this is the first time I've seen them say they don't have a harness that fits.

"Splice the color-coded Crutchfield harness to the wires from your new car stereo, then connect to your factory radio's plug.
Sorry, none of the items in this category are compatible with your vehicle "


I've seen custom stereo install threads on here before you just have to search for them if nobody chimes in sooner. Unfortunately I don't have any of them bookmarked since I have the stock navi system and can't upgrade mine.

I would NEVER use that POS place. They have horrible customer service and are flat out liars!! I had to do a charge back through Paypal to get my money back.
