You cant ground it on the new head units because it requires a special sequence to signal the safety feature. In Pioneers case I think they are all OFF-ON-OFF-ON. You can wire in a switch to the ground wire which should work? however I think it needs to go from seeing Positive to Negative signal so it cant just be a simple on/off. Don't quote me on that part though because I used a relay...

Regardless it is no longer as simple as grounding out the park wire.
