I just got a 2004 Coupe and this is my first post. Circuit City installed a Pioneer H/U, an XM antenna, and an MTX amp. No sub yet because I am planning to get a stealth box from subthump and a 12" MTX. They put in the heavy gauge wiring, so all I have to do now is install box and hook up sub. The problem is that my radio no longer stays on when I shut car off and it no longer works on the accessory switch. If I want to run my radio with my car off, I have to turn switch all the way to ignition (dash lights, fan, etc. running). CC says that it is impossible to fix this because of the year model of my car. I know with the advancements of technology, there has to be a way to address this. Any info or help with this issue is greatly appreciated. I am so excited to be a new Vette owner, but after the tire excursion and now this, I'm sorta bummed out.
Peace.
well getting it for acc to work is just a matter of splicing the right wire which they should be able to do, hell i did it many times when i installed at circuit city lol. the staying on when you turn the car off you need a special adapter for that off hand i dont know the name of it
