[QUOTE="Jepalan, post: 8248327, member: 655519"] Just to be clear - you know you have to *CUT* the speaker wires in the factory harness, not just tap into them - right? Unless you purchase an aftermarket harness to insert between the factory harness and head unit, you will have to *CUT* all of the speaker wires and splice in your new stuff - otherwise the headunit and the new amp will both be trying to drive the speakers (very bad). ALSO - please answer CrossoverORE's question - which factory system do you have? (Base, Premium, or Sony) - it is important because what you are trying to do may not work if you have the premium system - also, we can recommend an adapter so you don't have to cut the factory wires.
