hey guys im buying an eclipse head-unit. i bought one for my friend for christmas and he had to buy a scotch (sp?) harness. It was 80 bucks. He has an 01 grand am. I was wondering if anyone had to buy a special wiring harness, or I can go to advanced and buy the 5 dollar one. thx.

 

your grand am friend actually didn't have to buy that harness I had an 02 and an 04 Grand Am...But no you dont need a special harness I purchased mine at best buy for under 20$

 

well the metra harness is 70-2103 its the 04 malibu wiring harness

 

04 malibu requires fatory deck relocation - grand am did not. They are just trying to take you. Oh and the makers are schoshe. Just buy the one that is listed for our cars.
