Default PAC OEM-1: RCA Outputs??

I am currently installing a new HU and I am using a harness and the PAC-OEM1 for the nissan. On one side of the PAC OEM-1 there are 4 RCA outputs and 1 blue power wire.

Where the heck do these go???

On the other side of the OEM-1 (the input) I have all the harness wired together and connected.

So I had to abort the install after like 6 hours cause I didnt know what to do the PAC OEM-1. I understand its probably plug-and-play, so I just must be a moron.

Do the RCA cables from the aftermarket head unit plug into the PAC RCA cables? The PAC system schematic shows those cables as being the output, not the input... which would mean they would plug into an amplifier.

I am just thoroughly confused on the subject. I could have finished the install if I did have the PAC adapter, but I want to keep the BOSE and have it work decently for now.

I followed all the walkthroughs posted around here and Tech, but no one really uses the same PAC OEM that I have. They have the NIS2 with out RCA cables.

Hey Man, PAC-OEM is does exactly that. It converts your OEM radio to give you 2 RCA Jacks for installing an amp.

If you have an aftermarket radio you no longer need the adapter as the aftermarket radio has these jacks.

I believe the adaptor you are trying to use is for adding an aftermarket amplifier to your factory system. It is not intended for replacing the factory head unit.

Why do you need either 1 if you bought an aftermarket radio. Does it not have the RC Jacks already?

I dont know all the details, but its adpats an aftermarket to work with the Bose system. Maybe changes the impedance to 2 ohm or the signal level, not sure. If you do a search on PAC OEM there are some technical discussions on it.
