I just bought a 99 GT, and I've read all over the place there are problems when installing subs, amps, head units, etc. I really want to install a new head unit (probably a Boss single-din Touch Screen). I also want to install my old sub box & an aftermarket amp to power them.
Here comes the tricky part. All the forums I've read so far have said you can't use the factory speakers with the aftermarket amp, or you can use an amp bypass. I just really want to replace everything but the speakers, and I'm not sure if it's worth my time or if I should just hire a professional to do it.
My 2000 v6 car had some wiring problems when my stepdad tried to install my old system. The amp was constantly pulling power because he didn't run the radio wire properly, causing it to drain my battery if I left the fuse in the power wire for more than 5-6 hours.
Any help and/or prior experience replacing this stuff would be great. I like the stock speakers, I just want more bass.
