There is no need to run new wires. The issue about that is that on the OEM amplifier, you have to identify the signal wires that come from the stereo, and the ones that go to the speakers. Then you either cut and splice onto them, or cut into the sheath and splice into them. At the radio side, there should be a harness that allows you to plug & play an aftermarket radio.

If you install an aftermarket radio, you use one of these adapter harness to avoid cutting any OEM wires.

No problaymo. We enjoy this and help for the sake of the hobby. Better to keep this on forum so any problems and solutions will be on record for others to benefit.

 

[ziggy@2022]

Yeah no problem of keeping it on the forum like I said one the day I do the install maybe we could chat on a zoom call or something I am willing to pay you for your expert advice I could send a venmo I just don’t have the cash to pay an installer he wanted like $1000 to much for me

The best thing you can do is make a solid plan. This way you won't be spending money twice and having to keep going back in add or replace parts.
