Hello i am doing a small build on my 2016 Colorado LT non bose unit 8 inch screen IO5 model all i want to do is add an Kenwood amp XR401-4 and Kenwood  KFC-XP6902C in the front door and
dash corners and in the rear Kenwood Excelon X174 i am keeping the original head unit i do not want to cut the wiring harness  what i am looking for is a  amp pass harness if there is one i will need the part number so i can buy the harness


( or just the male / female molex plug with wires or not and build it myself i will need the part number so i can buy it )


if not then solution number 2  i will keep my factory amp hooked up and working  i will separate the male / female molex plug from the stock amp and use the (male plug with wires from the amp pass harness i will need the part number so i can buy it )

and send those wires from the male plug in the stock amp  and send its speaker wires from the factory amp to the  LC7i   which can receives high power audio signal from the stock amp and converts it to  RCA output then the RCA output from lc7i to the rca input of the Kenwood amp then the speaker wire output from the Kenwood amp goes back up to dash with the female molex plug from the Kenwood amp to hook up with the male molex plug from the truck original plug to the new speakers. .

Sorry if this email is very long but i do not want to start a project and not Finnish it the same day because of who knows what this is my daily driver i want to be as informed as possible .
Thank you

    • We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.
    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
