What year is your IS?

On the old unit there should be a code on the front (eg: 13903)- the replacement unit must have the same code otherwise it won't fit. As you have discovered the connections are different.

You might have to do some cutting of the wires?

Edit: Just noticed you have a 99 car (so the old unit is a bottom loading unit/CD player is underneath the tape deck- has it got the ERR3 error?). The new unit won't fit AFAIK. Sorry.

when my radio went t!t$ up i was looking at doing the same thing,

i temporarily had a different model head unit available to me.

the dealer told me that it could not be the different head unit.

i am pretty sure that every thread i have ever read about that subject on this forum confirms that.

but if you could get the cables from the car you removed the unit from, i am sure you could do some basic wire splicing.

of course it will physically fit, but it will take some doing wiring wise.

in any case, i would be interested in any pieces parts that you want to discard.
