Eric B Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Alright my cousin got a '02 Pontac Grand Am and he have the same deck as I do which is a Alpine CDA-9856 and he hasnt installed yet because its in his previous vehicle, but he gunna be putting it in his car but he says his car has the "monsoon system" or something, thats what he said. He said theres a amp in his trunk on back left wall behind the carpet to power his speakers..when we install his new deck do I bypass the amp and run all new speaker wires from the deck or do I run it with that amp some how? thanks 2007 Chevy HHR LT UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1st Place Loud N Low 2010 MWSPL Finals 3rd Place Xtreme 3 2010 MWSPL Finals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 well do you want to run the speakers off the head unit, or the amp? also, the harness for that car is pretty pricey btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the adapter harness is 75-100 bones....

Eric B Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I havent talked to him yet today he at work, but wouldnt you be better off to run it off the deck or is it worth the $100 for the adapter to have the amp power it, I read some of the reviews for the adapter on Crutchfield and it didnt get the best reviews.... 2007 Chevy HHR LT UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1st Place Loud N Low 2010 MWSPL Finals 3rd Place Xtreme 3 2010 MWSPL Finals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roscoe1129 Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Me personally I bypass the factory amp and use the head units or put a seperate amp in. Always works better for me that way!
