[QUOTE="Blackout67, post: 8893133, member: 683415"] I wouldn't take any advice from Mitchell. Note what it says around his name, he consistently give wrong advise. Don't trust him Find the model of the headunit and search for the manual off the Internet. You can find which wire is the remote, cut off the previous owners wiring job and put in your own and run it back to the amp.

For the most part wiring harnesses between share the same colouring scheme to match up with the aftermath adapter that runs to the factory wiring Essentially your remote wire acts as a switched power source.
