    Thanks so much for this video! It made it super easy for me to install a stereo with hands free calling and a backup camera into a 2000 Solara.

    You're a lifesaver. I was so confused as to why the recommended harness was different and where to find my Amp connector. Thank you!

    dude thank you so much! I almost ordered a harness so that I could use the factory amp, but apparently it's highly recommended to use the bypass harness for my setup.

    Thanks so much for explaining this I was going crazy trying to connect the “recommended” car harness for my Toyota solara only come to realize it doesn’t fit into that jbl one , now I realize I can just bypass the jbl and use the other ones thanks !

    This is a video version of a Usenet write-up I did 21 years ago. Google "usenet 2000 Camry Solara audio install guide" .. should be the first selection. I went through 3 stereos since it was so easy to install. RECOMMENDATIONS: Do NOT use the JBL amp! It's got matching (horrible) Eq for the really crappy speakers that came with the JBL system. Bypass the JBL amp using this install instruction. Also, REPLACE the speakers! They are paper cone and should be rotted away by now. There are much better (and cheap!) speakers you can use, like Walmart specials! Last, get a LARGE CAP for any decently sized external amp. The battery is too small, and the alternator is no better. You can get a 1 Farad cap @ Amazon for $35 + 4 gauge wiring kit for $25 (or 0 gauge for $40).

      Do I connect the capacitor straight to the battery terminal and ground to the chassis? I have a 10” Rockford fosgate subwoofer with a built in amp and don’t know how I should install the capacitor. Currently, the subwoofer power goes straight to battery and ground to back seat bolt. Audio comes from wires being tapped in with speaker wires. Any advice would help. Thank you

    Thanks for taking the time to make this video, it helped me. Unfortunately I experienced a large loss in audio quality in my 1999 Solara SLE V6 w/ JBL Audio package, I even have installed 2 different stereos, one cheap no name and the other a power accoustic double din apple car play dvd player. Both the sound quality is horrible, I also ordered the harness in the comments you linked and that did not work as well. Im on the fence on if i should spend more money (its my winter beater) or go back to stock and get a FM transmitter.

      No. Those other wires are the factory non jbl connectors. What plugs into them is the cable that runs to the amp and back to the stock stereo. Buy unplugging it. And plugging your aftermarket stereo directly into it you bypass the amp

      If you don’t have it. It’s not worth installing it. You can get much better sound for much cheaper going aftermarket. Get a nice head unit and amp and you’ll sound great. You can even do the speakers if you really want to have Crisp sound.

    My 1999 Solara Jbl system has an extremely loud Subwoofer rumble …assumed from the Jbl power amp…although once warmed up, problem goes away. Engine must be running for the super loud maxed sub rumble…in acc mode, radio works. Just purchased a NEW OEM in box JBL power amp. Paid Toyota to switch it out….with new Jbl power amp, ZERO sound from radio period. Contacted the power amp seller, and a replacement should be here by Monday…currently day before thanksgiving. So, has anyone had this problem? I assumed that it was the power amp that was causing the crazy loud sub rumble sound…. When the old power amp is put back, the signal does pass through. New power amp, no signal. Thanks
