    Ok...I've done all the mods I want so far..so thinking about a HU.

    Going to look at a DVD/GPS unit.

    My question is.....will it hook up to my existing JBL system if I get the factory wiring connector from Crutchfield?

    Won't be able to buy speakers...subs....amp til later so I need it to hook up to the factory stuff for a while.

    Well I hate to bug Mr Marv that's why I posted a thread. Guess I'll shoot him a PM after all.

    Everything should hook up and run properly if you get the right wiring harness.

    On a side note, when I when I went to buy the harness, the guy sold me the wrong one (I have an 09 with the sub in the back, so he assumed it was the JBL). He sold me the JBL harness which was almost 200 dollars! I didn't end up needing that one, and only needed a $13 harness.

    Yes you can get the jbl wire harness. It is alot more expensive though, The guy at the shop i went to asked if i needed that jbl one but i didnt.. dont think it was quite 200$, but i could be wrong.
