Need help please i just replace the factory radio for a boss bvcp9675a and wont turn on, i just got a aftermarket harness from amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MUKR33Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_XQbbCbJJDBVPV

Can anyone had the same issue, or maybe this harness is not compatible with this new boss radio?
thank you

Not very good reviews on Amazon. What about the highlighted part of donbrew's reply? Did you read and understand it? It's also right at the top of the Amazon listing.

I have never heard of a installation kit without directions.

Why not just do what it says and run a wire? If you want to retain the chimes and use steering wheel controls you will need other adapters.
What radio are you replacing, the listing says that it does not work with the "premium" system; That is the one with a sub woofer in the back.

Im replacing the factory Radio and my 2009 HHR doesn't have any 8" sub-woofer ins the back side panel, I have the HHR LS Panel without window panels on the rear seat, so I called Crutchfield to recommend me a compatible harness for my HHR (Base panel), since this car doesn't have the pioneer system they told me that this harness will work fine https://www.crutchfield.com/p_120LCL...Interface.html I'll received this new harness by Wed. so I'll let you how this goes.

Thank you for the replies guys.
