sony xav-60
ive seen this touchscreen deck around and it seems pretty good. wondering if anybody else has it or has seen it? what do you think of it? and the guy at the store told me i need to buy the $150 harness or else ill end up messing something up. i have installed car stereos before without every messing anything up? should i listen to him, or will a regular 20 dollar gm harness do? he works on commission

its all set up, no harness of any type whatsoever. every wire was cut and attatched manually but i have a few problems. sometimes(not all) everything is reset when i turn the car off, maybe a loose connection with the constant connection. the other problem is that my amp isnt working. i have a pioneer amp that i had always been using, i plugged in the rca cables properly and attatched the remote wire but maybe its loose. i will be fixing it up tomorrow and ill let everyone know how it is. the deck seems great, it was slow at first but now its like it needed to be warmed up, if i get those two problems fixed it will be well worth the money. ill post more info as well as pictures tomorrow.

i have an 05 used ls. it came with a cheap aftermarket headunit which i found out today the original owner didnt use a harness, and had no factory harness at all. When i said i cut every wire, i just meant all the wires were already cut and i had to attach each one individually.

its all done, everything works great and im pleased with the stereo. the controls are a little slow but not too bad at all. i will get some pictures within the next few days. i took my camera out but when i turned it on it was dead and i wasnt in the mood to go look for batteries and my iphone is sent to apple to be repaired which brings me to your question. I dont have my iphone or an ipod so no i didnt use an ipod, but i did plug in a usb flash drive filled with music which works great. any more questions?

Couldn't find any reference to that Metra harness on Google or eBay. Wiring harness correct? I already have the PAC unit installed on an old Pioneer deck in the car now, so I shouldn't need a harness anyways, right? If not will that Metra work on an 07' SS as well?
