You might be right, I'm looking into what is available, if anything.

[sepenator]

thanks, I appreciate all of your responses and help!

I just got an email from sonic and I found the right harness, now to go to the stereo shop and see if they have it and will do an exchange for me! Thanks again to you guys for all your help!

P.S. what are the RCA cables for on this harness?

Will I need to buy more RCA cable and run them to the bose amp?

hey dude...
i didnt read this whole thread...
but i had the same problem as yours.. and the harnesses made by PAC and Metra are wired for bose i think.. Monsoon is different (i even doubt its gonnna work for bose if thats what you;re running)

this is my install.. took me like a month to figure this out...

i can help you with this install if you need more info PM me.

Edited: what do you have? Bose or Monsoon?
and no you will not need any extra RCA.. the GMOS-09 is enough
yet.. the GMOS-09 might not work.. you will have to cut one of the wires

2000 SSEi he will have the Bose system.

2000 SSEi he will have the Bose system.

never played with the bose one
but im 110% sure its the same problem...
PAC and Metra have Pins A3, A6 and B3 all joined together..

i know they are not all the same...

but throwing 12V on pin A6 kinda shut/mutes the amp for some reason (on monsoon)
im pretty sure if he cuts the wire off the pac/metra harness itll work

[sepenator]

I have a Bose, so either way will I need a GMOS-09?, that's what sonic told me to get.

[SAMzGXP]

yes GMOS-09 is needed for sure... and its alot better than the PAC GM32R, ii tried both of them

buy the GMOS-09 its for the bonnevilles with Bose sound system, if it doesnt work as plug and play, then cut that wure and plug and pray

[swampthing]

you have to hook up the amplifier turn on wire from the HU to the pink (i think) wire going into the bose amp, it will NEVER turn on the amp until you do, I simply ran the extra wire back to the trunk and hooked it up.

I do not have experience with the GMOS-09 I have the PAC C2R-GM32R

why run an extra wire though? that was is connected to the dock n lock harness...

i have a monsoon amp (i know they are not the same but similar in a way), the pac and metra harness do have a remote wire but needs a little modification

[swampthing]

when i did mine with the pac harness it didn't have a remote wire hookup. I followed a write up on the old bonneville club to make it work, there could be newer knowledge since I installed mine. I just know how I made mine work and that it works flawlessly.

Ok, I got the GMOS-09, the wiring seems to fit together nicely... but I can't figured out which wire is the remote wire for the amp from my HU, I have a blue/white, and a blue wire, the instruction manual doesn't say which is which, so some help? please

P.S. The wires came wrapped in stickers, the blue/white one said "P.Cont" and the blue one said "Ant. Cont."

[swampthing]

according to kenwoods website you want to use the blue/white wire, the blue one is not supposed to be used

[SAMzGXP]

Usually Blue/white is remote wire
Blue wire power antenna

Well i got everything working, now I have to cut the dash cavity to fit the HU and make sure all the connections are good, and I realized how sound proof and solid my car is too... I barely heard or saw the bass in my trunk while standing outside of the car.

how did you get it working? GMOS-09?
if so was it just plug and play?

and yes bonnies are good when it comes to sound, i can barely hear my 750 RMS sub outside my car.. its kinda shocking lol

[sepenator]

Honestly, I couldn't tell you, cuz I brought it to the local stereo shop and they rigged it up for me... any tips on how to get it all to fit in the dash? like where to stuff the black box and the cables and things like that.

[SAMzGXP]

if you can ask that would be great, lots of members have hard time getting their aftermarket toys to work when they have a factory amplified system.. it could help someone later

as for the dash
this is my install
