Can someone give me a quick heads up on this. I need to do a amp bypass in this vehicle and am quickly running out of time. The headunit is sending too strong a signal to the factory amp.

Hey Rob, I have no reference to an amp in this vehicle in any of my installation programs. Are you sure that it has one ??

I dont remember on in there, But I could be wrong...If it is anywhere it would be under the pasenger seat or in the trunk on the rear window deck

Yes, it definitely does. A simple no sound without the remote on hooked up and the Premium Sound badge gave it away. I found the amp buried in the deep dark depths of the center console, under the radio but it is not visible from the radio mounting location.
