On the harness, remote wire is going into right front speaker negative, so I had to cut that wire and reconnect properly.
It's also confusing that the harness on the rear OEM amp has left and right wires swapped out (location wise).
So, you have to go by the OP's instruction. Not by the instruction that comes with the harness.
By doing it this way, you do save time squeezing into tight space. But after I went through all this, I'm pretty sure it would've been easier if I just ran the RCA from the OEM deck. I probably spent 2 hours researching on what harness to get, how to rewire the harness, connecting all the wires, and etc just to save probably 10-20 minutes of time to run RCA cable.
