Oh, and I love the guys whe tell us they got it a Audio Wizard on Monrow St. in East Bumfuck nowwhere!!! We live all over the country here people!!
Okay, I just reread my post and realized that I didn't say that right. The Metra Part that I bought at AutoZone (and it should be at other places like Circuit city and stuff) is:
AW-WHFPS
It has a blue bar on the top and indicates Ford/Mercury.
It has three sets of connectors in it:
1.) Main Line (for power, dimmer, antenna, etc...
2.) Speaker into Factory Amp (Non ByPass)
3.) Amp ByPass Connector (a double ended connector: one end plugs into factory harness going to speakers. The other end goes to a different Ford/Mercury amp I think. I just cut off the useless plug, put some bullet connector on it and connected the bullets to the Pioneer speaker outs from the Head Unit.
No factory wires cut!
I hope this helps someone. If more info is needed, feel free to drop me a msg.
Oh yeah, it was 10 bucks (no shipping
!
Peace
