Where can you hook up a REM wire on a stock 03' Grand Am GT radio?

Is the ignition wire ok? Where is the best place to run 1?

Thanks.

I believe red is also used as the ignition power wire for GM as well.

Any 12 volt source that comes on with the car being on or comes on with the radio being on. Or you could just wire straight to a constant 12v source and run a switch.... that's what I usually do.

Got it. I was eaiser because she has Monsoon Sound system. So there was a REM wire. Also know as the Antenna relay coil I believe.

CC guys once again. Said I'd have to pull the whole dash out. Drop the radio and fint a thick *** orange wire. They said it would be a pain. Wrong. I Pulled a piece off took 30secs to wire up the line out. Ran power and rcas another 45mins, easy as cake. Except the fact I had to reset the alarm on the car because of Theftlock. Doh! It thought I was stealing the radio lol. It never went off untill I shut the hood.

Tired and around 10:30 at night, shut the hood, then beoooooooooooow. Scared the living shit outta me.
