Radio wiring diagram for my SC

Hey all, I'm attempting to fit a Subaru double din unit into my 92 SC, I have sussed the Subaru side with what does what on the loom plug wiring, I thought I had sussed the Toyota loom plug but when I went to trial fit n try it what I had found on the Internet as to what colour wire does what is not what I have on the plug????
Does any of you SC owners have any info for dash radio loom wiring

Out of the factory the Hiace should come with a Toyota plug on the end of it.

Does it look like this would plug into it?

TBH the colours might mean anything - but these plugs should fit.
The big plug does most radio stuff including the front speakers, the small plug does the rear speakers.

BTW I'm not sure what the Subaru unit has, but if its not a standard ISO connector you may need a 2nd adapter to go into the standard ISO connectors that the link I gave had.

I.e. Toyota -> ISO -> Subaru.

E.g - for the subaru side..

The only issue is that this last connectors needs to be reversed - i.e. it's a Subaru car to ISO radio, whereas you need to find a ISO car to Subaru radio lead as your 2nd lead.

Failing that you could just buy one of these to fit on the end of the 1st ISO adapter...

I've got the plug to the Subaru unit from a breaker, ebay seller just cut the plug of the dash loom with plenty of wire, I have sussed that with a Subaru wiring diagram of the net, I'm now needing to know the colours Toyota have used and the plug is one complete rather than the 2 normally used, looks a bit like -

I had one diagram which said orange was 12v batt and grey was a speaker but testing it I have permanent 12v from that grey connector,

Sounds like someone has converted the Toyota perhaps to a mini ISO connector, google to see if it is one of these. The mini ISO is an alternate to the bigger ISO pair.

looked further into this last night and I *think* I have found the answers.......

For some reason it looks like an extra loom has been fitted in, looks factory but then not if you understand, I dug deeper into the dash loom and found what could be the 2 iso pluf connectors that matched my iso adaptor before I cut it up to fit the plug that came out of the Toyota stereo, it has the correct wires and looks to be right, I unplugged them and tried switching things on off and all works.....I've got to buy another iso adaptor as like I said I cut the first one up but I could be getting there

will load pics later at home

I will check how the wiring in mine works. I have a euro version, in there is already a convenient adapter in there.

I'll post up the photos later tonight, it'll make it easier to understand


ps love the emo's just like vzi used to be in the early days

here you go
fitting this

I took out the Toyota steroe which had this plug to it

which has caused me a lot of grief, but looking into the dash I find these

and

which are remarkably like the ISO adaptor I hacked up to try and fit to the plug that went to the Toyota stereo

so, another adaptor tomorrow, plug in and try and see what happens

The lower two are the standard Toyota adapters, a cheap Yaris adapter will convert that to the 2 ISO connectors.

The first looks like the one I have on my Sansui so may be a standard ISO type.

BTW have you checked the stereo fits in the hole in the facia?

It fits lovely, I've got to adapt the brackets but when I trial fitted it and out the dash back together it was almost factory

Excellent!
I had to push mine out 15mm from where I could fit the old brackets. I ended up trimming some bamboo flooring down as spacers, and buying some M5 30mm bolts to fit.
