www.partsexpress.com search for mach460 (2001-up)and that harness is what you use if you want to keep the factory amps.
the mach system uses front and rear mono not left and right so left amp is front right amp is rear. to get an almost proper sound stage with an aftermarket headunit use two stereo to mono rca adapters from the shack one for each set of pre outs (use the rear set from the new head unit for the rear speakers and front for the fronts) this way you get front and rear stage correct just not in stereo otherwise its front that is left and rear that is right channel and the headunit takes care of the mid/high in the upper doors and rear deck.
a true remote wire does not exsist on the mach system. you have to find a switched one on the radio harness. i cant remember what i used but there is one that will work.
