Go here and locate the wiring color coded table. Locate "Radio Switch" wire. It should be Yellow/White.

I am so glad about that switch line! I got so ticked when all the fuses in the fuse box stayed live all the time. I am planning on using two sided insulation tape to stick my 6x9s in the back. I just purchased the new infinity kappa 3 ways. They freakin rock

Theres 2 yellow and white wires I believe... the one you want is the smaller gauge of the two. Whats the deal with the 2 sided insulation tape to put speakers in??????? you gotta screw those puppies down!! not tape! Use the screws that held the stock speakers in place.

Dont tell me you get use the Yellow/White wire from the fuse box. This wire is in the back where the Bose amp is. Assume your power wires to the amp is correctly installed, there is no way the amp would be on and stay on when the HU is off. Oh yeah, given the fact your head unit is stock, too.

I did everything to spec from the pictures. I tied into the line for the radio switch going into the amp. I can try again, is there any thing I could have done wrong? At least I had time to secure my speakers.

Snap couple pics of your wiring at the amp and at the harness so I can see.

I thought I would be able to borrow a digital cam from a buddy but he does not have it at the moment. If you have any closer pics of the specific wire to attach my remote to that would be awsome. I pulled everything out, maby I will just do it again during the day time w/o the help of any beer
