[QUOTE="BoxdGM, post: 7970327, member: 593635"] So i picked up a aftermarket head unit to replace the stock unit in my sisters car for a xmas present. Im trying to avoid buying the chime retainer kit so im planning on just hardwiring it and bypassing the factory amp. I know ill lose some features in the process like warning chimes and the feature that keeps the radio on until the door is opened. Anyone got any tips for this car? I know ill have to run my own power wires to the fuse panel for constant and switched power and probably have to run speaker wire back to all 4 speakers. Ive heard of people using a saturn harness to make it easier (bypassing the amp) ive tried searching but everyone links people to impalahq for info but their site has been taken down. Anyone care to share their experiences with this car without using the 100$ adapter harness? [/QUOTE]
