I am installing my Alpine head unit into my 04. I picked up a wiring harness and spliced all the wires together. It lights up great but no sound? I know i did it right because I installed the same head unit into my eclipse.

Is there something that I need to connect it to the bose system. My roomate says there is a different wiring harness for the bose?

Anyone have some advise?

 

for bose you need to make usre:

1. the remote turn on wire from the headunit (blue with white stripe) is connected to the amp turn on wire from the harness adapter (also blue/white stripe). this turns on the bose amp

2. hook the amp ground wire (i think black with a white stripe?) on the harness adapter to ground, though this may not be neccessary, its a good practice to do it anyway

do those an you should be up and running with sound, though if you didnt use a bose adapter module you may get some annoying HISS in the background at all volume levels.

good luck

What the heck it this? Where can I get one, I dont have it.

 

it's called PAC OEM 1. Search for it on eBay. It's an adapter / filter to convert the signal over the stock speaker and subwoofer unit. I just did my install and it's pretty much a straight forward. No issues at all.

 

I am looking at it now, so this plugs into my wiring harness from the head unit, then into the car's harness? I dont see where I would splice my head unit wires into it anywhere?

 

the scoscheone works the same way:
