you need to install and power the amp, this in turn powers the second DIN that is currently unlit. and I think you also need to connect the dimmer as well.. you will find the functions work on the DSP but you cannot see what the hell you are doing.

hope this helps.. BTW you will also notice no rear sound as well I think unless you have the amp hooked up. then I would suggest the dimmer line to power the face.

it sites behind the boot carpet on the drivers side and plugs directly into the fairmont body loom and an extra cable which runs the audio signal.

The amp cable from the back of the H/U ends in RCA's but the amp has screws to wire into, a pain in the a**.

you need to find the positive and negative in the RCA then and wire em in.. but before you go chopping up your exsisting cable, get a short RCA extension and chop that up instead.

someone like jaycar may even have an adaptor for this application as well..

worth a look
