Default Bose Bypass Question

I'm sure the answer is in the forums somewhere, but I sure can't seem to find it. Anyway, I'm going to be putting a new headunit and all new speakers in my C5 coupe and totally bypassing all the bose stuff and will be running new speaker wire to all the speakers. My question is, is there a cheap wiring harness (not the $90 one that connects to the bose amp) that I can use that just gives me power, ground, and the other connections rather than splicing into the wire, maintains RAP?

Good call! Looks like he lists "Scosche GM02B Wire Harness 1988-2005 GM Vehicles" for 9.99 on his site under the C5 section, so I'm thinking this might be what I need.

You might send him an e-mail and see if he has one by Pac-Audio, I like them much better than Scosche.

Look in the C5 FAQ in the Audio Electronics section. It describes where to get switched and constant power for an aftermarket radio.
