theres a way easier way i’ve been searching for weeks on how to install a double din in 03-07 cts, its a PAC wiring harness and it makes it plug play with any head unit, its on amazon the name of it is “ PAC Onstar Interface for 03-07 CTS & 04-07 SRX “ has no rear speaker connections tho so i just tap those into the front ones like front left + and rear left plus from your aftermarket head unit harness go with front left plus on the harness for the car and so on and so forth

YA It's called a suiside can for a reason dumbass, low and high Pressures are a corelating factor with temp. Higher ambient temp = Higher presures, don't just drop a can in without looking for pressure, temp diferentials,, there are charts for this, google it.

So are you just not able to use the factory amp when you install an aftermarket radio? I need some explanation I’m just confused why you can’t tap into the connector coming off the back of the radio
@TheGarageDoc9 ай бұрын
Yeah it’s a bit confusing. When you put a new double din radio in, it comes with a wiring harness, because not every vehicle has the same connector. So the normal 8 wires ( 4 speakers each a + and -) that you connect the new radio to are usually the back of the radio because they usually have an amp inside them. But if you skip to 3:01 on this video, you’ll see that those 8 wires are actually in the trunk instead. And from the trunk, they run wires to the speakers. So the route I chose was to take 8 wires and run them from the new radio up front, and then go to each speaker from there. I hope that helps explain it some

@TheGarageDoc9 ай бұрын
Yeah all the colors coming out of the amp on the big connectors are to each speaker. I can’t tell you for sure the colors but if you check the wiring diagram it’ll say something along the lines of “rear center speaker (+ white/green) ( - red/black)

This car (and possibly all Cadillacs) is very different from any other one I’ve dealt with. I’ve always been able to use a wiring harness to put on a new double din, but I could not find one that was even made for this car. This car also uses more than just one or two factory harnesses (as seen in the video) so I think that is what makes it difficult to adapt to a typical double din radio which just has one or two connectors
