Use this to get signal to the amps/subs:

Use a relay or a switch to bypass the parking brake wire...

Yeah, you can use Y splitters for the RCAs and just connect the remote turn on wires all together.

Nevermind, you have no need for those adapters. I just looked up your head unit, and it has 6-channel preamp outputs 2-volt front, rear, and sub woofer.

Using this cheap harness will result in a pop noise every time the stereo turns on, so you will need a voltage regulator to fix this.

Good write up on installing this...

I just followed the instructions in a youtube video for the parking brake bypass. Lets see a pic of the new setup.
