I have to install a radio on a 2008 mazda miata.

I noticed it SAYS bose system. I ordered the harness(70-7903), the radio kit(99-7506) and also a pioneer radio.

Im hoping someone can tell me if I have to bypass the Original amp to install an aftermarket radio?

if so, where is the original amp and where can I found the pin out diagram?

here is some pic

No need to bypass. Connect the blue wires to turn on the amplifier.

Just did that.

Hooked up power, acc, ground and blue (turn on) and 1 set of speakers.

No sound
