We swapped my head unit and just ran new speaker wires to the amp plug. Of course the amp and sub dont work now, but the speakers sound better than they did before.

Just a thought but couldn't you just take the factory base CD player for our car of and hide the brain’s of it deep in the dash behind the radio. Don't worry there is room. Plug the brains of the radio into the CAN-BUS plug so the amp turns on but cut the signal wires to the amp and run them to the new radio.

let us know how is works. I just went on their website and it says there will be a version 2 for the Lancer / Evos with the RF system and that hasn't been released yet.
