2002 monte carlo factory stereo - 4/24/2008 6:15:08 PM    paddock   Posts: 95 Joined: 4/14/2006 Status: online     I'm just tryin to figure out the factory wiring for the stereo.   Does that little amplifier in the trunk power the entire system.  Or is it just for the rear speakers, and the deck control the front speakers?

Let me know what you're wanting to do and I may be able to help you out. I've explored every inch of the factory system, from the headunit to the amp, and back to the speakers. Just don't ask me about colors because I'm color blind... _____________________________ (in reply to paddock) Post #: 3

RF Speaker +/- lt. green - dk. green +,- radio harness LR Speaker +/- brown - yellow +,- radio harness RR Speaker +/- dk. blue - lt. blue +,- radio harness I don't know if you already had that, but that's all I really needed when I did my system. This is everything coming out of the stock headunit though, not out of the rear amp. _____________________________ (in reply to paddock) Post #: 5

RE: 2002 monte carlo factory stereo - 6/27/2008 4:00:35 PM    SS_intimadtor   Posts: 6 Joined: 6/26/2008 Status: offline thank you, i must say that wireing the LOC is easy and it is much harder to run the power wire in the car. i hooked up a old MTX 10'''' 400w to a 300w amp and it sounds pretty damn good for what it is, next i just need to swap out the speakers. i must say that if you go to best buy and get the pigtails for the factory plugs for the speakers it is much better and easier to install, no cutting and not wiring at all, just plug it in.
