Got my Alpine 9805 today and am gonna replace the stock 1 unit high GT radio. Just wondering:

1) is there an internal amp in that version?
2) what extras do i need to put in the amp? my dad insists that i need an "ampersand" aftermarket mounting kit, and then some internal harness because he doesnt want to clip wires. Does anyone know where i could find either of those if they're neccessary?

Thanks,
Amory

Don't get the Amp harness, Unplug your wires from the stock amplifier and get a stock toyota wire harness. I had a stock amp and it sounded like hell, using the CD player's amplifier sounds a lot better.

But he might need the stock amplifier to power all his speakers....

Bottom line is- Determine if you have a factory amp behind the dash and/or below the drivers seat, and then also how many speakers you have. If you have both amplifiers, i.e. one under the seat and one just in front of the shifter behind the dash that power 8 speakers, then you will definately need the Metra 8112 harness.

If not, then you should get a regular harness that is reccomended by your local audio shop. wink.gif
