②Antenna unit:1
③Harness:1 ④Urethane sheet:1
⑤Protective sheet:1 ⑥Double-sided Adhesive tape:2 ⑦Tie-wrap:17 ⑧Sub harness for hood

⑪Owner’s Manual:1
*1:For GALANT without theft alarm system
*2:Only one remote controller can be registered to a vehicle for safety reason. (It is not possible to register two or
more remote controllers to a vehicle nor register one remote controller to two or more vehicles.)
■PRECAUTIONS
- Be sure to apply the parking brake securely. Remove the ignition key from the key cylinder.
- Disconnecting the (–) cable from the battery causes the radio and audio presets, the clock, etc. to lose their
memory. Record the contents of the memory before disconnecting the battery (–) cable to allow you to reprogram
the radio presets after the installation is completed.
- Be sure to connect the connectors securely.
- At positions where the harness may interfere with other vehicle parts, take appropriate measures such as
winding vinyl tape over the harness or fixing the harness using tie-wraps to prevent it from damage and dangling.
- To prevent the cut edges of tie wraps causing injury, do the following:
- Wind the tie wrap with its protruding part pointing downward (so that its cut end points downward).
- Cut off the excess tie wrap close to the head. Do not cut at an angle.
On GALANT without theft alarm system, the hood switch (Mitsubishi genuine part, sold separately) is also required.

- Be sure to disconnect the
negative terminal cable from
the battery.
- Loosen or tighten bolts and
nuts using tools that match their
sizes.
- Use a Phillips screwdriver that
fits the recess in the head of the
screw being loosened or
tightened.
- To remove plastic parts, use a
trim remover.

- When disconnecting connectors,
first unlock them, then separate
the connectors by pulling on
themselves, not on cables.
- When connecting connectors,
push them against each other
until the lock clicks.
- Do not pull on wiring harnesses
strongly.
- Do not let harnesses be pinched
between parts.


- Route the harness away from hot
components such as the engine
and radiator.
- Protect the harness from sharp
edges by covering the edges with
tape or other suitable materials.
- Apply sealant to grommets at
portions where the harness run
through.
- Do not fasten the harness to
brake pipes or high pressure air
conditioner pipes.

- Fasten the additional harness
to an existing vehicle harness
using tape or tie wraps.
- Bind up extra length of the
harness using a tie wrap.
- If one tie wrap is too short, use
two connected together.
- Check the product and wiring
for installed condition before
connecting the cable to the
battery.
- Check the installed product for
function. Also check lamps,
horn, wipers, etc. for proper
operation.

■QUICK SPLICE CONNECTOR
Precautions for installing quick splice connector
- Be careful not to damage the vehicle harness when cutting the vinyl tape wound around the harness to expose
the wire to which the quick splice connector is to be installed.
- When connecting a quick splice connector, confirm that a click is heard and also visually check that its two locks
are engaged firmly.
- Before installing a quick splice connector, re-check the colors of the two wires to be connected and also the
connector terminal number from where the wire to which the connector is connected comes to prevent incorrect
connection.
- If two or more quick splice connectors are to be installed on adjacent wires, do not install them side by side
but stagger them to prevent interference between them.
- If its two locks are engaged securely, the quick splice connector will still perform properly even if its hinge breaks.

1) If the wire of the vehicle harness to which the connector is installed is covered with vinyl tube or vinyl tape, cut
it off properly and expose the wire.
2) Insert the wire of the vehicle harness firmly into the guide groove of the quick splice connector.

3) Fold the connector, then press the connector with a pair of pliers as shown until it clicks and the two locks are
engaged.
4) After confirming that the connector is connected firmly, wind vinyl tape around the connector to prevent it from
rattling.
