thanks

hey thanks guys.
i figured out what the problem was. see what i did was i didnt buy a harness because it was so difficult trying to find a harness for it. All the store kept giving me was the cavalier harness and i was so frustrated!

so what i did was cut the stock harness and just straight wire it to the head unit and i thought that the 2 green wires where common negatives and wired both of them toghether and there went my cel,no blinker, and no fuel gauge. but i figured it out.

its an 05 by the way. <~~~~ this guy is bad asss.

man you messed up, they sell those harness's you just werent looking hard enough and google is your best friend.

Metra = 70-2103
Warning the Scosche, AI and Bluewave harnesses are for Saturn's... the plug will physiclly work but you will need to repin the speaker wires along with cut or remove the 2 red "jumpers". I dont recommend them but i have the part numbers listed.
Scosche = GM04B
American International = GM-4003
Bluewave = BW-H


found that in
general stereo FAQ

Well you will have a hard time selling your deck if you get rid of the car because trying to put that stock clip back onto the stock harness will be a P.I.T.A.
