[QUOTE="sizzl3r, post: 8174672, member: 624838"] Well the amp not being turned on is definitely the issue. I took it to a somewhat professional...He couldnt do much. Everywhere I've read said that the remote wire for this factory amp is "the pink one under the steering column"... there's probably 20+ pink wires, so he went in with a volt meter and tried to find one that had no power when the car was off & on, but with no luck. Turns out the harness is known to be faulty...we're really hoping thats the issue because I've never been more lost in an install before. Since we bought the harness from bestbuy, we're gonna take it to them and have them look at it since it was faulty. Shouldnt charge us anything since its their problem. Unless anyone has any other suggestions, I'll be taking the best buy walk of shame within the week. :P [/QUOTE]
