So I've done numerous audio installs but this one has me confounded. Everybody is telling me that I have to use this metra kit with the driver information center 05-08 PONTIAC G6 STEREO INSTALL DASH KIT COMBO 99-3303 - eBay (item 360246659668 end time Feb-17-11 09:15:28 PST)
Problem is I don't want to spend that much plus the headunit when I'm not sure how long I'll keep the car. From what I understand if I use anything else I lose the dic..which don't tell me much anyways. I can calculate my fuel and keep up with oil changes without that crap. So my question is; can I use this kit Stereo Radio install Mount Dash Kit +Wire Harness Plug - eBay (item 390283207583 end time Feb-23-11 06:16:25 PST)
If so, what else would I need? I think maybe a switched 12v power source..could I just use a togle switch for this? Anyone with experience with this type of car, please shed some light on this. Thanks.
