I have an 02 jetta 1.8t I bought the Eclipse cd8443, i bought the right harness also. I installed the head unit it turns on and plays but there is no sound coming out of the speakers I had an installer check it out and they told me they dont know whats up with it . If you know please let me know what the problem is.

 
Take the cd player out of the dash, disconnect all the speaker wires. Take a new speaker and attach it to the speaker wires from the 8443. If the speaker works, so does the cd player. This means that the issue is in the vehicle somewhere, more than likely where the factory amp was. If you take out the stock amp, the entire system needs to be rewired.

 
To avoid the possibility of rewiring, try to see if you can get a turn on lead to be connected for the stock amp. If you had bought the Metra harness 80-1784, it'll show you where to connect these turn on leads. It's usually white in color for the car.
