-pioner AVH-P8400BH + rear camara

-camaro sound kit from doubledmods.com (nothig speccial just new speakers) and the double din dash

with all the electronic modifications you did I would look at all the grounds (negative)side on everything you installed. sounds like you need to check every ground. good luck! the oldman....
