Replacing the BOSE
I have a 1990 with the Bose Gold series stereo in it that I want to replace with an aftermarket CD DVD system. I have been told that the ignition runs thru the Bose system and will keep the car from running right or at all. Any truth to this or can I just use one of the aftermarket harnesses that say they are for this application?

this belongs in audio!
from the top menu bar, Forums==>General Corvette==>Audio/Electronics.
Read the C4 Audio FAQ and then repost your question.
Oh, and the bose has nothing to do with the car running... whomever told you that is on crack.

i just put an aftermarket in my 84, first i tried to wire it correctly, and what transformed is when i hooked it up, the drivers front speaker, and passengers rear speaker was the only speakers working, so what i had to do was disconnect the amps from the speakers, and you have to run your own wiring to the speakers
