GymJunkie Posted February 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) Actually best buy wanted $100 and they wont ground the brake wire for me. I would do it myself except I dont have the money to get wires so I can extend the harness. And I never knew that it could cause any problems, thats why I had to ask.

Shyne151 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Too lazy to read if anyone posted this yet... but look in your trunk in the passenger side... should be an amp with a standard 1858 harness plugged into it... you need to run everything back there and need a ec144 antenna extension.

GymJunkie Posted February 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 On to the next question, I see no area for the wires to run from the dash to the trunk, where do the stock wires run?

baggedon4s Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 (edited) pull the passenger sill plate, and the bottom of the back seat. Run the wire out the bottom of the dash, under the glove box, down the kick panel, then to the back, under the rear seat, into the trunk, to the factory amp just on top of the passenger wheel well. It seriously takes all of 20 minutes to do. If you car run RCA's, you can do this no problem Edited February 16, 2010 by baggedon4s Quote 99 suburban, ranger rover headlights, SS front bumper,roll pan with frenched tag, 2nd row delete,glassed dash..audio to come whenever I figure out what I want.

shaggy Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 You have to run wires from the tuner in the trunk. The tuner can be in 3 different places depending on the model of the car 1. back of seat 2. right side of trunk 3. under rear deck . Metra makes a relocation harness 70-1856 that comes with everything you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, Ill start working on this when I can stand being outside that long (no garage). You have to run wires from the tuner in the trunk.

Unfortunately Metra's product page wont load and when I emailed them about it they sent me a different link that doesnt work either. Quote 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham.
