Hi guys ..

So I finally got a car, 16 years of waiting. Its a 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue. So, I am piecing my system together step by step.

I got my SA-12's already, and I ordered my Alpine CDA-9887. It should be here tomorrow..

But, I have heard stories about not being able to put a deck into a car with factory Bose systems, without having to get one of those expensive ass harnesses. I just dropped $330 on a deck, and am trying to avoid more with a harness.

Could anyone give me advice on what I should do? Will it work and am I tripping out over nothing?

Could someone possibly send me the link(s) to what I should need? I'm pretty concerned now, as my deck will be here tomorrow :nea:

the factory amp will just turn on in that car.

no need for any pricey harnesses.

make sure to hook up the amp turn on..

im not at work so im not 100% sure but You should'nt need a module. As long as the factory harness is un cut all you do is match the colors. MAKE SURE TO TAPE OFF ALL LOOSE WIRES...

lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz.

I had the same problem. What i did, was just run new wire to each speaker. I completely ripped out the bose stereo amp and did that. Havent had any problems since. If u were truly into car audio, u would man up and rewire ur speakers.

I would concider rewiring all my speakers if I had too, to avoid $130 for a harness, being the last option.

But I might attempt putting in my deck tomorrow. Do I wire the factory remote wire and the remote wire for my amp together?

Or could someone just write me a step by step thing? I'm 16 and installing my second deck, and I really dont wanna fuck this one up.

Yeah. If by factory remote wire, u mean the one on the aftermarket deck, yeah. Just connect it from there to ur amp and it should be good. And it would be hard to fuck up on this if you really set ur mind on what u need to do. Get a jukebox, some arizona tea, and a pair of wire strippers and ur set!

So, connect my Bose amp wire, Sundown amp wire, and wire it into the remote spot on my deck?
