[QUOTE="Zach85, post: 1086341, member: 546438"] I have the correct wire harness and mounting kit. After I posted that message I realized question number 2 was stupid. In my best friend's car there was no Illumination coming from the car, but there was one coming from the Head unit. The same with my very first car I had, 87 Olds Cutlass Ciera. What I did then was just connect the ILL to the power, with a 3 way connection, and it works that way. It doesn't work without it that way in both cases. However, with this car, there is an ILL coming from the car, so I'll just connect the two ILL directly. If it doesn't work, I'll try connecting both ILL to the Power, and hopefully that'll work. I do have a question about number one though... the HU doesn't have a remote wire, unless that's under a different name. I've downloaded the manual ahead of time at Jensen's website, while I'm waiting for the CD Player to be delivered. It doesn't have anything labeled as "Remote" for the harness that connects to the HU. By any chance is Remote On the equivilant to the 12v Ignition/Switched on the HU? If so that'll be a 4 way spliced connection with the 3 red power wires. If not, what should I do? as for the power, I'll join all three ends (HU, 12V, and EQ) together. unless I add the REMOTE ON from the EQ I'll just hope that there'll be a nearby screw that I don't need to add onto the ground. Speaking of which, I just took a look at the wiring harness and it has a "Dimmer Ground" but no Dimmer Positive. Would I have to put a terminal ring on the end of that wire to ground it as well with the other two grounds? I don't understand why it would have a Dimmer Ground but not a Dimmer +. Just for your information, I've done car audio installations before. This is the toughest one for me though, because I'm using an EQ for the first time and because of the Eagle Talon being significantly different than any other cars I've worked with. Thanks a lot for you help, and I thank you in advance for the next response to this post. Hopefully everything will be cleared up after this. I am expecting my CD Player by the beginning of next week. thanks again! [/QUOTE]
