So I printed out that wiring diagram from PAC and went to my shop that installed my deck. The fu#%ing diagram is wrong! They said the wires in the car don't match up to the wires in the diagram. So now I guess we are back to square 1. Great job PAC!

That is not good news for me given that I have to install my system soon. Did you contact PAC to indicate that the information that they have provided may not be correct?

I tried sending them an e-mail, but I don't think it went through. Or they are ignoring me. One of the two.

Its an audio shop up here in toronto. The only thing though is I had to replace the amps to get the sub working but no big deal.

I'm interested in the steering wheel controls too. What shop did you have install yours in TO? If they were able to do the steering wheel controls, it might be worth the drive down for the day.

Alot of the problem is, the OEM amp use the car CANbus system for the
amp remote turn on, The oem amp don't work like our aftermaket standard amps.
Unless someone know how to hack into the CANbus, there is no way to use the factory amp on the 9 speaker fosgate system.
