Head unit replacement?
I have a 4 channel arc amp and a new head unit to replace my bose system in my 08 vert. A couple questions
1. I want to replace just the head unit first. What harness to I need to use. I have onstar/Bose.
2. If I don't like how that sounds and decide to replace the Bose amp as well, will that same harness be compatible. Or am I wasting money buying extra harnesses.
3 a couple shops recommended just doing the radio, not sure if there a good shop though. I have replaced the the front and back with coax, removed center speaker and sound deadened the doors already.
All these opinion are getting very confusing. Some say I need a harness and some say no if I don't care about chimes. Advise is much appreciated

just radio will help but not near as good as adding an amp and coments with a sub
