[QUOTE="j03sl4ys, post: 7259849, member: 631388"] Ok, so I went back over my work and checked all of the wires and fuses. Fuses were good, but I had my remote hooked up to the power antennae, (ended up being 2 different blue wires, and i picked the wrong one at first) so i fixed that. I connected the cars ground & ground from head unit to the amp ground that comes from the cars harness (dont know if this does anything, because I have my amp grounded to the chassis in the trunk). I separated my ACC and 12v batt wires and checked my fuses again. Found a fuse under the hood that was blown, but I don't know what fuse it was because the cover for the fuse box was missing. I replaced the fuse after fixing the wiring to the head unit and viola, lights work.
