first have you started simple and checked your fuses to see if they popped and turned the amp off? And if you have did you check EVERY fuse or just the ones you thought the manual told you about? If you have not yet go out and take the 2 mins it takes to pull and check every fuse in the car(under the dash and under the hood) and you might just suprise yourself.

2nd if you want some pics/info on how to put a deck in check out my cardomain page 2395420 page #2 and I show how to put a deck into a mach system. Your hrns will be different since it is 10 yrs newer but the same stuff in the end. You can use all the factory wiring and its really easy to do too so don't let anyone scare ya off.

Amps are great if the budget allows it but remember you will probably need another $50-70 parts to put it in and while they help they help you do not need one now.

I am not on here as much as I use to but I will try to check back. We use to have a solid group of industry installers here that was great to give info but people have wandered off over time and its been years since I did it full time now too.

 

Fuses are all good. That's the first thing I checked, then all my reading told me the amps were probably friend, so I tried replacing them. The whole story is here. You actually took part in the thread. haha
