Default New radio

If i go to bestbuy and get a new radio installed and tell them to make sure that the dome light comes on and the keyless entry works too will they make sure since when u take out ur stock radio it stops working.

Here's an idea, have you tried calling Best Buy or talking to someone there?

I work for Cicuit City so I think i can answer this question for you. Back in the day before METRA made the by pass harness you would have to leave your factory radio in the vehicle. I know thats what I did, but now METRA makes the harness which will by pass this so you can have the keyless and dome lights working for you

PART # for HARNESS is MET 70-1720T

Honestly, Don't go to best buy.

Horrible customer service experience there.

HD over rated. We really dont sell any of them that much. As for interior speakers go with some nice Polks or Infinity. I have a nice Eclipse ECE 4000 CD player if you are interested?

To be honest you could just buy some decent pioneer speakers and they will sound 1,000 times better than the stock speakers.
