What is a decent radio substitute that will work with Bose system?

Night Fumes. Yummy!!! Sulfuric acids vapor from anodizing, industrial de-greasers or polishers, petroleum based fumes inhaled from machining at high speed (coolant evaporating in the air). Colleague Andy's funny cigarettes smoke.....

Allll good fun.... you should see my Headwear Gas Mask bud :/

You are the Walter White of Boxster addicts. You even have a sidekick. Is your other car a Pontiac Aztec? This could be a blockbuster TV series. We could call it...

Knurling Bad.

Funny thing is I work with a lady whose husband bought one of the meth lab RV props from Breaking Bad. They rent it out for parties. We not rented, it sits in their driveway.

The eBay item/harness posted above is for the BOSE M490 AMP. This will NOT work if you have the BOSE M680 (MOST) system. If equipped with the latest, you need to buy and rig a "analog-to-optical adapter" in the 12vdc.

And Alpine makes the best car head units - period.

Thank you

I just found this out this morning.

However, I don't think my problem involves either of the aformentioned issues.

The harness I received only has "regular" line out for the front speakers.

My radio, near as I can tell, does NOT use line-level outs to the amp, at least according to the pin-out on the yellow plug...only ONE wire coming out, and that is the "amp turn on" wire.

It appears as though the car uses all "regular" level outs from the radio...so I have to cut the fugging connector and splice 8 wires...which is ok, as Im pretty good with a soldering iron.
