I am puting an Alpine IVA-C800 in-dash tv into my buddy's '99 Tahoe. My question is, there are two wires left to go, a blue and black. Which one goes to the foot brake and which to the parking brake? If anyone can help me with which goes where and what I can do to bypass the e-brake, I would be much obliged.  My second queastion is, he has what I am guessing to be a premium sound system with 6 channels. Can I just hook up the two sets of rear speakers to the set of rear outputs or do I need an adapter of some sort? Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

Mike

blue is usually the amp output trigger and black is ground, the parking wires are yellow wires. all the colors should be on the sticker on the brain itself.

yes, the post above is correct. anyways, did the head unit NOT come with instructions that tells you what color wire goes where? even if it didnt, it should be printed on the top of the head unit! Alpine IVA-C800, 99 Tahoe - Last Post -- posted image.

Thanks for all of your help. My buddy got this from a friend, and no it didn't come with instructions. I will trace the blue and black cables back and see what they wires they are tied too. That will probably lead me to the yellow/blue and yellow/black wire that were spoken of. Thanks alot for your help.

Feel free to call me stupid, but I am having a hard time finding the brake switch on a '99 Tahoe. Naturally, this is the first video install I have done and its not for me, so I don't want to mess this up. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it. I am installing an Alpine IVA-C800 in dash with DVA-5200 resting under the passenger seat. I am going to run the wire to the brake switch, and the one that is supposed to go to the parking brake I will ground out with a toggle switch inline. If anyone can tell me whether this is right or wrong for bypassing the safety mechanism, it would be much helpful. Thanks in advance.  Mike
