well actually i havent installed yet i am doin it tomorrow i hope, i ran into the issue of finding a place to run a 0 gauge power wire thru the fire wall as i have a 1500 rms kicker type z amp

ya i ment to put there are no rca outputs on headunit my bad

yeah pulled mine yesterday and was surprised that they pulled RCAs from the $1200 upgraded radio. Anyone worked around this yet?

My opinion is get a low level converter spliced onto the amp in the trunk. Buy the two metra harnesses (model escapes me, you can search forums) that allow you to splice the harnesses themselves rather than cut into the factory cabling.
