Default Ditching the Bose in a C5 Z06

I think I have everything I need. As of now it’s all stock except for a single din kenwood with the pac adapter. I wanted Bluetooth but now it sounds horrible. I have a amp for the door speakers and one for subs. Only thing I’m lacking is a harness to replace the pac adapter. I plan on running all new speaker wires. What harness adapter can I replace the pac with?

@VinceC5 I think this one's all you man.

OP, I'd love to help, but I'm not super familiar with C5 audio...That's Vince's world.

Thanks man. I’d rather not have to cut up the factory harness if I can help it.

Which Kenwood do you have?
you should be able to run new wires to all your new speakers. RCA cables from radio to amps, power, ground and remote trigger and that's it.
Leave the pac adapter alone.
I'm assuming you have the pac oem vette 1.
Let me know if you have something else.

I’ll have to check the model on the head unit. It’s a single din a few years old. So just leave the pac adapter hooked up? I’m guessing that the speaker out wires on the pac will do nothing since I am running new wires from the amp to the speakers yes it’s the ome vette 1 adapter thanks for the help. I thought I would have to remove the pac adapter and use another harness.
