Which wiring harness for aftermarket radio?
Hey guys,
I'm a bit naive when it comes to car stereo installation, but I bought an aftermarket headunit on ebay and I need to buy a wiring harness for it. I know our car has a factory sub/amp, but do I need anything special in order to make it all function properly (besides the steeringwheel controls)? Which wiring harness do I need and are there any special instructions to follow?

Yep. Youll need to splice it onto the radio harness. Its not difficult at all. What radio are you running?

evan, go with the oneWithout AMP attachment, why? because your radio will be 10X LOUDER, and it will sound cleaner with the aftermarket radio. i have been going with this for a year now and all my speakers are still good and the stock amp is working fine
