Hacking the harness's - PAC OEMVet1
In my 98, about 10 years ago, I hacked in the RCA's using bullet connectors and line taps. Over time the grounds on the RCA's have started to break( they are very tender to begin with.)
I picked up the Pac OEMVet1 and the Pac AMP-RCA harness. I knew I would have to meld the two together, what I can't quite figure out are the grounds for the RCA's. The OEMVet1 harness has a single ground that mates with one of the grounds on the body side(clear wire), so the question of the day is can I take the 4 RCA grounds from the AMP-RCA and splice them to the single ground(White/Blackstrip)?

Ok, Thanks, now I am looking at the harness's and trying to figure out if I can get the wire and pins out intact instead of cutting them. I have the female sides and that would make life easier for splicing.
Figured it out. my hacksaw blade is the perfect width. I cut deep enough to expose the pin and it pops right out. Just in case someone else is looking to do this.
