Ok, my oem tape deck just died. It endlessly auto-reverses now so I think it's high time to pop in a cd/mp3 player.
I have purchased a DIN bezel kit and a wiring harness kit for my vehicle. Mine apparently has the amplifier also, which seems to be broken as well, because when I turn the fader to the back all I get is very shoddy sound from one rear speaker.
I read in an earlier post that I should bypass or remove the amplifier. Is it only active for the rear speakers then? I don't have a problem with this as my new headunit should be plenty loud enough for my aging ears. Whats the best way to proceed?
I'm pretty skillful with wiring and such so I'm mainly looking out for potential problem areas and things to watch out for.
