Okay, I've got some info for anyone looking to replace their factory stereo but has the factory amp to contend with.
The factory wiring is located UNDERNEATH the amplifier and is attached by a plastic plug to the bottom of the amp. The factory wiring plugs into a big blue connector which then runs wires to the side of the amp. So you CAN use the standard 2 plug Toyota harness adaptor that's sold everywhere.  That's the good news. The bad news is that you have to remove a lot of trim to get to it.  I'll be putting in my new stereo in a month or so and I'll post a how-to on it complete with pictures. |

I did it in the winter in the cold a** garage. It took me 6 hours to do because we thought that we had the wrong harness. We couldn't find where to take it out. I think a lot of us have had this problem installing new steroes. The celica is the only car that I know of, that you have to do so much work just to get to the harness.
