Having trouble finding the remote turn on for this car. I've looked allover the net regarding the shaker systems, but the way described doesn't fit my scenario. I have only (2) plugs, main harness with all of the speaker, power, etc connections, and a secondary 8 pin connector with two wires. Wires I have unused RED / black, WHITE/ orange, and pink / YELLOW i believe. Can anyone help me out?

Are you trying to turn the factory amp on? Or are you trying to turn on an aftermarket amplifier?

Factory amp. And the second plug is a 16 pin plug. Pink/orange, yellow/red or white red

Sure did, but the plug does not match. I believe the one with the kit is an 8-pin, the car has a 16 pin plug.

I am pretty sure that the amp turn on wire is on the smaller plug.  Did you buy that exact harness?  70-5521

Seem to be an odd set up.

From the diagrams, it looks like the dark GREEN/ violet and gray/black wires in the 8 pin plug are the turn on wires. They are labeled as audio enable. Not sure what polarity they are though, you will need to check. It may be data, so use caution when testing.
