Welcome to ZDriver!

MSA sells a kit... http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/RF/50-3301



Also feel free to search our site... lots of info on custom radio installs.

see know if i had know about that back 2 years ago i wouldnt have to have made a custom one out of plywood... yes plywood, dont judge me... and yes it was a 2by2 sheet

try car toys but what you will get is made of plastic. I took some sheet aluminum and made one for two z's i owned.

plywood is a pretty good idea. its sure strong enough, thats for sure do they make a wire harness to install a aftermarket radio. if not whats the best way to do this without cutting into the radio harness?

lww

Uhh... don't install the new stereo? As far as I no, there are absolutely no plug-in wiring harnesses for these 26+ year old cars.

zfreak1981

that figures. the stock radio just isnt that great.

My local walmart has a wiring harness kit for Nissans '74-up. including 240z,260z,280z/zx,300zx and 350z. It's made by Scosche and their site is www.scosche.com I hope that helps someone.

it doent, Scosche should be sued for false advertising because it only fits like 95-up maximas

btw welcome to ZDriver

ya that kit is crap i actully bought it and returned it 2 hrs later becasue it doesnt work the only thing to do is splice into your exsisting harness like i had to do....then again i wasnt given much of a choice lol
