Two Questions About 2nd Gen TL

1. I've searched and read about all the things that need to be done to upgrade the stock system. I saw the parts about bypassing the Bose EQ in the trunk, but all the topics I read were in reference to those keeping the stock HU. I've already changed my HU, do I still need to bypass the EQ or is it already off ?

2. After I had my HU changed the light in the clock above the climate control no longer works. I am going in on thursday to get it looked at, but has anyone else had this problem ? Does the power that goes to that have anything to do with any wires that go to the deck or is it something where the guy probably just pulled out a harness by accident ?

thanks in advance for your help fellas

If you changed the HU and retained the rest of the OEM system then the Bose sub is in the path but the Bose EQ is out of the circuit.

I suspect the clock is not pluggeed in OR the bulb went out from being moved around when disassembled.
