New Head Unit for '02 Z06; how to keep 8" woofers?
Hey guys,
I just purchased an Alpine IDA-X001 from Crutchfield for my '02 Z06. The head unit comes with all the necessary stuff, wiring harness, mounting plate, etc.
However, the wiring harness that crutchfield supplies does not have provisions for the 8" woofer in the door. With their wiring harness, you lose those speakers. Losing them is not an option for me, as I'm trying to improve my stereo, not diminish it.
Does anyone know of a wiring harness that I can purchase that will allow me to keep the subs in the door?
Or, will I be forced to try to splice and wire them myself?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Ralph

You didn't mention you had a Bose system. If that's the case then it's no wonder the aftermarket head unit didn't work properly. The new style Bose systems send audio signal to the amp at a constant volume and the serial data line sends volume control information separately.
If you have a Bose system you must use a Bose adapter to install an aftermarket HU. On the other hand, if you don't have a Bose system then a Bose adapter won't work.
