The RENNLIST thread had some good info on it too. I can get a picture of the back of mine early next week if you are still working on it.
You mentioned the RCA jacks plugging back into the head unit - which red and white RCAs did you connect? I have two male connectors coming from the car wiring harness side but four on the head unit side. Two are labeled AUX IN and two are labeled AUDIO OUT. I assumed audio out is the one I want but no luck..

Maybe a stupid question, but what is the brown connector from your review photo? Unless I dragged it out of the way when relocating my climate controls I don't have this one.


Lack of instructions has me scratching my head a bit I've got power to the head unit and it turns on and functions, but no sound comes out (the important part!) and I'm struggling to understand which cables I actually need to connect and which are extras or unused in my specific case (I have a 2000 S, so no Bose and no MOST but I do have the decklid speakers w/o the rear sub).
