[QUOTE="maylar, post: 8299143, member: 541144"] The thing you have to understand is that the old systems used chassis ground as the negative side of the output. The minus lead of each speaker went to ground. The modern systems use 2 wires per speaker and neither of them are ground. So when your harness and new HU arrive make doubly sure that none of the speaker wires are ground, otherwise you'll cook the HU. [/QUOTE]
