Default vats/radio/will it start

Im deleting my entire radio system and everything that goes with it. The antenna will be gone aslong as several wires that go into the BCM. They are all being elmininated. Willl the car still start after all of this is removed or will I have to get a tune and disable vats? lmk I need this to run asap and dont want any complications. Thanks guys

My car started right up! No stereo or wires or amp speakers, even took out the air bag module and clipped all the wires. Even though I havent pulled the bags yet. i recommend disconnecting the battery for awhile fist

if you have removed all the wires and bypassed it to go straight through to the starter i dont see why there would be an issue.

How do I make a bypass or what do I need to do? OR does it have no choice but to start without the bcm connected anymore?

Just deleting your radio has nothing to do with the VATS.

If you are eliminating the BCM, then you will have to do something. That part is unclear.
