[QUOTE="lumpmoron2, post: 357161, member: 551697"] The 2003 Mazda 6 has that same thing. My friends dad got a custom alpine HU installed at soundadvice. it was the highest model last year Alpine (i forgot model #) and they had to rewire a remote led inside the unit so it could work from the stock steering wheel controls. the stock radio/pannel/ac everything controls are unable to be removed if you want everything to run in the car. so the HU was installed IN the glovebox. i believe they just removed & turned off all the stock HU electrical so it wasnt connected to any of the speakers. he has 2 JL amps, one for subs, one for his 4 speakers. but in saying all this, the stock HU has nothing to do with the car anymore and when you turn on the car it still says "Hello". it doesnt bother him at all, but i guess the wiring for that LED pannel to say "Hello" must not be controlled by the stock HU or else it wouldnt be working in his car.
