Not sure what you need correcting but will run through for a solid rca and not a degraded signal like from most hi/los

Other than that you will have to call metra

On the stock radios, the louder you turn up the volume the lower the bass signal drops. That's what I was wondering. 

 

Either way, I think I'm going to go with this setup.

Please keep us posted. I am looking at doing the same. Is the harness the GMLAN-09?

Yes that’s it. The only place I was able to find the harness was on eBay. And compared to the most 1 counterpart at 150
This one is about 35 and as long as you don’t have the Bose system or that type of upgrade this is the one you will need per metra

Oh wow.

 

Well US I paid 285 for ax-dsp from amazon of all places and free prime shipping and then 35 bucks for harness off eBay with free shipping.

 

So with exchange rate that’s about right.

 

Glad to hear they squared you away. I have been using metra for years and all the vehicles I’ve had their products are great without breaking the bank.

are the cut leads all the way on the right for tying the speakers in from the amp back to the DSP?

There are 2 sets of cut wires. I’m working on the exact reason for the others. I believe they are for other items such as remote, etc. if I can sneak away while the wife is sleeping I can finish the install. Have amp installed with all wiring ran to dash. Pulled screen just have to finish the minor wiring

I've been reading the install instructions online but It doesn't seem to say what the wires are for.  I may order the harness next week first to plan out my wire runs

yeah, I saw those but I was guessing they were for the universal  harness and not the custom T harness.

 

does the DSp box fit in the small space behind the screen?

Posted

It definitely does fit behind radio. I’m working to figure the extra front speaker wires, what looks like an amp turn on from the oem t harness. Anybody know if these are too be disguarded? If keeping factory radio without factory amp?

If not I’ll prob call metra tomorrow to get it sorted out.

Here are the wires. All others are regular white,gray, purple, and green for speakers.

This damn thing is too new for much info.

    • Can ask that about a lot of places.   Holiday sells 91 for $1 over 87 octane. BP 93 is 80 cents. Amoco 93 is 80 cents Kwik Trips is $1.20 for 92 or whatever they have and $1 for the 91.   I know that this is not exactly same as what you are saying with the premium to premium debate of those two stations but why is there such a difference. Top Tier this and that, it's all BS. All the fuel comes from the same damn refinery, so give me a break.
    • Why does Mobil Premium cost 90 cents a gallon more than Shell Premium when their regular offerings are but pennies apart? 
    • Was all the way down to $3.69 a gallon but then jumped back to $3.99 just because for some reason.   Diesel floats between $4.80's to $5.10ish a gallon. I even saw Diesel #1 for $6.09 today but nobody in there right mind even buys that in the summer.
    • Mine just keeps lagging or getting stuck on the reverse camera. When I turn off the truck, get out, and close the door it will still stay on. It’s very intermittent and I would not be able to duplicate the issue. 
    • I was checking out fuel prices at my farm fuel retailer at their pumps and yes the farm price is a bit lower than the non dyed fuel and was glad to see that the regular farm gas price has dropped a lot from what it had been but what blew me away was the price of diesel as the spread now compared to before the prices went up earlier in the year, diesel was actually slightly lower than gas which was a switch from the theme the last number of years. However that sure isn't the theme lately and definitely not right now. The prices I will post are not from that retailer but just looking at gasbuddy for the main city in this area and instead of posting the lowest price someone found I will list the higher price ( and that may not be the highest price, just whatever someone posted on gasbuddy ).   So regular gas and there are a lot of stations listing the same price for regular is 1.68 a liter, premium 2.00 a liter. Diesel 2.03 a liter for a top price I saw on diesel.   Figures out to 6.36 a us gallon Canadian funds for regular and 7.68 for diesel. With the US exchange rate it would be 4.58 us for regular and 5.53 for diesel.    Thought I would figure that out to get a picture of what it settles out like compared to various US prices and its about the same as the current price in Fairbanks AK as Anchorage tends to be lower. So yes, these would be the prices and higher along the way on the Alaska highway where they know they have a captured market !, for fuel prices for those beginning the long drive back to the lower 48   The problem is our Canadian dollar and going to the states that have the high prices, boy do we pay then !
