If everything is factory, and not all butchered up THIS should help.

If your going to keep the factory keyless..... yup, gotta keep it. there is a metra harness #70-1720T to retain factory keyless.

Check your local car stereo shop, for the harness. I myself would spend money on an aftermarket keyless just to NOT need to stuff that OE radio into the dash.

Well i got the 1720T, the car had the Rf part in te dash and a casette player in the center console, so i completley removed the casette deck, and moved the rf part down tere, plugged in the 1720t into te factory radio, car and after market ( alpine cde9852)

First problem... If i turn the radio up past like 15... power cuts off....

the car has premium sound i guess cuz it has tweeters..

Second problem.. keylesss dosnt work, the factory radio was off and just diplayed the time...

ok ive run into these before there is an internal amp and the keyless runs through the factory radio while metra and a couple other companies make some harnesses to fix that ive found that pigtail connectors and bypassing the amp at the amp itself you should be able to find the schem on here if not let me know and i should be able to draw it up for you.

keep it greasy
