pac C2R CHY4 Wiring
What would you recomend? I realy don't want to splice the amp harness after the amp. If I ran speaker wire to all four doors right off the new deck instead of through the factory amp, then I'd lose the 3 speakers in the dash correct? How much of a difference would it make sound wise if I got nice speakers for the doors? I could go with components I guess. UGH! Stupid infinity system. Too many questions!
Weed, these are the wires I'm having difficulty understanding from the interfaces instructions as my Kenwood does not have those input wires available. Highlighted in Red.
11 pin plug (to CAN INTERFACE):
Blue/White - Connect this wire to the radio’s amplifier remote output. Connect this wire with or without OEM amp
1. present! This connection is VERY IMPORTANT! Some of the C2R-CHY4 features will not function if this wire is not connetced!
White/Green - SWC output. 2.
Green - Connect this wire to the radio’s reverse input wire only. 3.
Orange/White - Connect this wire to the radio’s Illumination input wire only. 4.
Violet/White - Connect this wire to the radio’s VSS input wire only. 5.
Red/White - Connect this wire to the radio’s parking brake input wire only. 6.
Not sure if I need to wire these, and if so, where do I find them and what colors are they? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Reverse wire and VSS are under the hood and in the PCM harness.
Reservse is a white with green strip
VSS is a green wire with yellow stripe
Again, these are knly needed for navigational units as nav requires these for GPS.
I just paid visit to Pioneer's website. SInce I don't have DVD or Nav, I don't need any of the three wires. Those wires are inputs for nav units, but on any non-nav or DVD stereo, they are not used. Thanks for your help. I can't wiat to get this thing installed. Think I'm gonna install the radio first and see how it sounds with the factory speakers. If I like that, I'll roll with that setup. If I don't, then I'll get some new 6x9's for the front, and run them off the radio directly so I get fll range sound to them.
Post pics when you get all done
Thanks for all of your help. BTW, nice truck. So, by using this interface, I'm still sending all of my signal through the Infinity amp correct? If I later decide to run everything off of the Kenwood through an aftermarket amp, how or where would be the best place to run the speaker wires to since it seems as though running any wires into the doors themselves would be impossible.
