Chapter 2- General Installation
2.1 Installation Location
Most installations will require you to remove the factory radio in order to plug in the vehicle
specifi c harness. Some vehicles may require you to connect the interface to a factory pre-
run CD changer cable. The location of these CD changer cables will vary by vehicle. Some
common locations of these cables are in the trunk, behind the glove box, and in or under a
center console. ( see Fig.2 below)
