This morning, We upgraded the radio to a jvc in this 2006 Nissan Sentra.

The pioneer radio that we installed in this car over 2 years ago with the previous owners had began to experience some issues such as radio suddenly shutting off randomly, some buttons were unresponsive etc. The new owners now have this car and they wanted us to install a newer radio in the car. For today’s installation with a updated radio, we reused the wiring adapter, cleaned up the wiring and we put the jvc radio back where the old pioneer radio used to be, skipping the $15 dash kit. We reconnected the subwoofer system back to the new radio and all speakers work. Please note, we don’t do subwoofer installs at this time, but we knew exactly how to reconnect it back since it was already previously hooked up with the pioneer radio, just a couple connectors. The radio adapter was reused so there was no need to hardwire the radio straight to the cars wiring.

You have the option to buy a dash kit or put the radio at the bottom where the bottom pocket used to be if you had the factory original radio. Antenna adapter wasn’t required so the stock antenna cable plugged straight into the car radio. Previous installers before us ran speaker wire for the front doors and they were connected to the pioneer radio so we connected those to the front speaker wires of the jvc radio.

We tested the all of the electronics before and after installation. What we found wrong before installation, one power outlet that is located right below the stereo wasnt working so we put a new fuse in and it worked great. The other power outlet in the center console works great. The trunk wasnt opening so we left it alone.

Vehicle & parts used:
2006 Nissan Sentra
JVC KD-SX26BT Bluetooth car radio
70-7550 Receiver Wiring Harness

Parts that weren’t used. And other info:
99-7414 Dash Kit and again you can purchase this kit or delete the cubby storage and place your aftermarket radio in this location like we did here, and save $15-20$. The customer was okay with us placing the jvc radio in that location.

Installation will be the same for:
2000-2006 Sentra

Radio Upgrade Updates:
We installed this Pioneer radio into this 2006 Nissan Sentra back in 2024 when that was done with the previous owners. This car is owned by someone else now, and they can’t get Bluetooth connected to their phones and some of the buttons are unresponsive so they went ahead and asked us to order them a new radio. We found this nice little JVC Bluetooth radio for them, with an installation date confirmed for this Saturday morning, 10/24/26.

This is a JVC KD-SX26BT Bluetooth car radio with Bluetooth and usb connectivity, and FM/AM radio sources. This unit does not play CD’s but who uses CDs anyway in 2026? This unit will be installed in this car on Saturday so check back for the full installation update. We look forward to helping the new owner of this vehicle with this installation. See you then!

Update #1 12:20pm 10/20/26: We tested the stereo Monday night (10/19/26) with a car battery to verify that it powers on and it works! The jvc stereo is ready for this 2006 Sentra on Saturday and look out for the full installation job post this weekend. See you Saturday!

This afternoon, we replaced the radio of this 2014 Ford Econoline E250 Work Van. Customer just wanted Bluetooth capability for wireless music streaming due to the original factory radio not having Bluetooth. Cleaned up the wiring with zip ties and electrical tape.

Since this car only has 2 front door speakers from the factory due to being a base model work van, we hooked up the wiring for the rear speakers anyway (the green and purple wiring) to be on the safe side, keeping from any unused wires from potentially causing shorts. If the customer decides to add back speakers at some point later, we will use the speaker wires from the radio unit itself. All electronics before and after the installation job all worked great. We are going to replace the front door speakers at a later date. This car uses 6x8 speakers.

We used the dash kit bracket, wiring adapters and antenna adapter for the installation. We actually ordered the installation kits and pieces last year for this car, customer provided the radio they purchased themselves. The radio did not come with the microphone wire for wireless calling (that normally comes with JVC & Pioneer radios) so we skipped that step.

Vehicle & parts used:
2014 Ford Econoline E250
Sony DSX-A415BT bluetooth car radio
70-5520 wiring adapter
99-5812 dash kit bracket
40-CR10 Antenna Adapter

Installation is the same for all:
2008-2016 Econoline E-Series vans.

This morning, we knocked out an installation for this 1996 Honda Accord Manual.

We installed this used JVC KD-SR81BT Bluetooth radio and 4 new speakers all around, with proper installation kits and accessories.

Radio: we took out the original radio and installed the JVC radio with the proper dash kit and wiring harness adapter without the need to cut wires, and we cleaned up the wiring with tape. Antenna adapter was not needed. Original antenna cable plugged straight into the jvc radio

Front door speakers:
A brand new set of Kenwood KFC-1666S Sport Series 6-1/2 speakers were installed in the front doors with the speaker wiring adapters without the need for cutting wires. Installed in the stock speaker brackets.

Rear Trunk speakers:
We installed a brand new set of Pioneer TS-F6935R in the rear trunk with wiring adapters (same as front) with no need for cutting any wiring. The wiring on the rear speaker was found to have been damaged but we fixed it with car wiring connects and wrapped it up with electrical tape to maintain the clean, original look. We put the original speaker covers back in.

All electronics worked before and after all installation of all 4 speakers, radio. We did find out the driver side window was a bit slow at rolling up, but we notified the customer that it wasn’t an user error on our end, it was that way before we began the work. Customer played music for about 10-15 minutes after the job was finished and there wasn’t any problems found with the sound system. If you plan on tackling the job yourself, save yourself a headache and unhook the battery. We didn’t disconnect the battery, but installation went as planned.

Vehicle & parts used:
1996 Honda Accord Sedan Manual
JVC KD-SR81BT
Kenwood KFC-1666S Sport Series 6-1/2 Speakers
Pioneer TS-F6935R 6X9 car speakers
Metra 99-7898 Radio Base Dash Kit
4 pcs Metra 72-7800 speaker wiring adapters
Metro 70-1720 radio wiring adapter.

Other radio installation info:

Metra 95-7801 Dash Kit: this is what you will need if you’re putting an Apple Carplay/ Android Auto touchscreen radio for the 1994-1997 Accords

We have posted the speaker color diagram if you own the same kind of car and would like to tackle the job yourself - AND DO NOT CUT THE ORIGINAL RADIO ADAPTER PLUG: spend the extra $10 on the aftermarket radio adapter.

This installation will be the same for all 1994 to 1997 Accord LX, DX, EX 4 door sedan and 2 door coupe models. If you have any questions about this install or need any further information/assistance, dont hesitate to reach out.

Thanks for viewing our job post. This car is officially marked off our list. Have a blessed day and we look forward to helping the next car. See you in the next one!
