[QUOTE="Canaan, post: 6729780, member: 566706"] Does that car have On-star or Bose? DO NOT USE THAT PURPLE WIRE AS A 12V SWITCHED ACC !!!! Your vehicle is controlled by Class-2 Data. That is a data wire. If your car didn't have Bose or a stock amp, just connect to the speaker wires you have listed. Then use the ground and 12v+ constant. Next, grab you DMM and find a switched 12v+ source at the fuse box, tap and fuse that (I use a relay most times). You could also tap the and fuse the orange acc wire at your ignition harness, it may be easier to get to in your car. That should have you up and running. [/QUOTE]
