Hey, I need some assistance with installing my Kenwood KDC-MP208 reciever into my 1999 Camry. I have removed the face of the dashboard and have access to the factory receiever, I just don't know where to go now. I don't want to start toying with something and then break it, And I need to know what to crimp, and where to crimp it .

The harness you purchased should connect color for color to the harness from the kenwood radio. Red to red, Yellow to yellow, Black to black, GREEN/ black to GREEN/ black etc.

If the blue and blue/white wires of the radio do not have a matching wire on the harness, you need to insulate them so they do not touch anything. Do the same if there is an orange or ORANGE / black wire on the harness you purchased.

If the harness plugged into the back of the radio does not plug into the harness you purchased, there is an amplifier under the passenger seat of the car, the harness you purchased will plug in there, you will have to extend the wires so that the radio plug will reach the radio.

Even easier, on those Camrys, if it has the factory amp(usually indicated by a single plug into the factory radio and tweeters in the front doors) look on the right side of the radio cavity once you remove the factory radio.  There should be two plugs that match the ones you're wiring to your new stereo, just unplug them and plug your radio in.
