Im putting a whole new system in the car and ditching the monsoon wiring how do I hook up the head unit to get power and the ground? Do I use the stock harness still or what? Thank you

You'll need a wiring harness like this to hook up your aftermarket HU

HU still uses a harness adapter, antenna adapter and mount adapter for installation. You just don't need to hook up the speaker wires since your amp will be power those and your signal will becoming from the RCA outs on the rear of the HU. You WILL need to still hook up the yellow, red, black and the blue remote turn on for your amp. The harness adapter will be wired to your new HU's harness. Then you plug it into the stock harness and to your new radio. The RCA's will also plug into the back of your new radio and go to the amp.
