I've used the factory ground when installing aftermarket head units in the past 4 vehicles I've owned and never had a problem.

the (replacement) Hu's ground.lol. fail.

so i believe it should still work with a new harness.

Not much going on in that HU

nope. its rated 52x4 at 4. joke.

suprisingly, it sounded decent. better than a factory, lesser than my previous.

3 band eq, hi-mid-low adjustments.

1 set of pre outs.

the dettach face is nice...display is easy read.

not bad for free five finger discount at salvage yard.
