Angry Re: Big Q

YEAH! thats what i did i went threw the same hole u r talking about i bet! Sadly i did cause damage when installing the wiring :{ i tried covering the wires under the side plastics on the inside of the car. and on the drivers front the 3rd screw away from the door "by the pontiac sill" i cracked "not off but almost" a peice of plastic that i hopefully want to mend back together! "the screw was stripped so i tried lifting it up and stuffing the remote wire and rca cables underneath it

NO, they don't. wrong choice of words.lol!!! I meant to say that the only thing that didn't work was the wheel controls and it was only that one plug left. So I figured that's what it was for. But, there is a piece you can buy and hook up to the wheel controls if you AM HU has remote capabilities.
