Haha thanks brotha

i cut the plastic off and spliced the wires together then hooked those up to the speakers. It worked the speakers sound great.

haha i know at least i tried. how do i bypass that then

this kid too the rubber off the inside of the doors, the accordian looking rubber. Then he proceeded to cut the wires hidden in there. He did this to all 4 doors. I reconnected all the wires and got my front passenger speaker working perfectly. The drivers side front door still isnt getting...

Ok so i have a 98 vw golf that was gutted by the moron i bought the car off of. i finally got my head unit situated but now im having some trouble with my door speakers. I have successfully installed the passenger front speaker. However i still need the drivers side and two back speakers. Im...

FINALLY my car has bass. The issue wasnt the harness adaptor itself. Because i have a volkswagen and these cars are german the install process is different. The is no ignition wire. So my unit was getting power it just didnt know to power on. The fix was very simple i just had to tap into my 12v...

i checked all of the fuses. the head unit is an alpine cde-102 i had it in my old car so i know it works it was only in a vehicle for 3 weeks so its brand new. i just dont understand why i get no power to the head unit if theres no fuse popped. the cigarette light outlet doesnt work either.

the fuses are good which boggles me. and the car is a 98 vw golf gl. thanks for the responses too

Ok so my head unit isnt getting power my buddy pulled the radio out and the live wires touched. Im pretty good at installing head units however this on is beyond my knowledge. Im sure the wires touching caused a short. I just dont have a **** clue how to find where it is. Anyways i was wanted to...
