  1. By the way. I have a 96 gs300 sport which had the pioneer premium system in it as standard. I decided to change it because of no rds and a high pitched whine through the speakers. I tried to use the factory fitted pioneer amp in the boot but got into all sorts of bother. I bought a Kalibre 5 channel amp and wired that to the factory speakers and sub. Great sound now as long as the engine isnt switched on as it still whines even though I have rewired most of it. Local car audio specialist reckons it could be one of the wiring looms and is going to have a look at it for me. I smell an enourmous bill ahoy but it needs to be done.

  2. I assume that you have the head unit that has the cd function on it but no boot changer. If that is correct I have a spare changer. I had to use the head unit to make my new fascia as I could not source one anywhere so I cannot supply that aswell sorry. Do you have all the wiring for the boot changer already. If you do you can have my changer as i do not need it anymore.

    Cheers

  4. Hi

    Wonder if anyone can help. I have fitted a kenwood head unit and power amp to my 1996 gs300. I did this for a couple of reasons, one being that I was getting a high pitched whine through my speakers which increased with acceleration and turning on of indicators. I thought this could be an earthing problem so I changed the factory fitted Pioneer premium system. The new system sounds ace but I still have the whining noise through the speakers despite fitting a surpressor. I have heard a rumour that there may be some sort of surpressor in the engine bay that may have failed. If anyone knows how I can sort this I would be grateful. I have rewired the entire stereo so I know it is all grounded/shielded correctly.

    Cheers

  5. Just put my kenwood headunit into my 96gs. Powers up fine. No probs atall. This is as good as it gets though. Without a wiring diagram it is a nightmare to get a non stock head unit to drive the standard speakers. It is for this reason I am buying the electronics bible for my lexus. I have ordered it fronm the states and it has cost me nearly 90 quid. Beacuse of the hours I have spent trawling the net for wiring diagrams which no one seems happy to publish I will be happy to provide diagrams that are in the book to any of you in the hope that noone ends up in the state of pure frustration I am currently in.

    Cheers

  6. understood the order was for only 67 dollars. Does anyone have any contacts in the states who would be able to help me out. I really would like to find a solution to this problem quickly. There is another route I could follow but I need a smallish sheet of abs plastic. Anyone any idea where I can get hold of some

  7. Just got my email back from autotoys.com who I ordered a fascia and adaptor from for my gs300. It would seem that they dont ship overseas and it has taken them 13 days to tell me this. I really do want to replace the factory fitted stereo can anyone help. It is not just the yanks who drive gs300's is it?.
