can I extend the factory wiring harness of the stock head unit? I am building a box to replace the back seats that's going to hold the nitrous bottle and I am planning on tossing the head unit into it because I have a digital window switch and nitrous switches in place of the head unit. I have the steering wheel controls so I figure ill still be able to shuffle songs and adjust volume so is there any reason why I cant cut the harness before the connector, solder in a few feet of wire and run it that way?

 

Nope, I've done things like that before and they typically work fine. Just be sure to solder and heat-shrink all the wires properly, and mount the HU securely and you should be good to go.

 

nice thats what I was hoping to hear. Thanks

 

Make sure you don't mount the HU at too much of an angle. CD player could not play right. Pics when done!!!
