Anyone stateside sell the plug & play loom like Mike in the UK?

With the dollar worth nothing and shipping so high I was wondering if anyone stateside has a version of Mike's plug and play loom for adding a amp without splicing into the wiring.

Thanks for the post.

Who's Metra? And how can I find a schematic. I'm comfortable making things like this but I need a roadmap...

I'm guessing this is the Metra mentioned?

http://www.metraonline.com/products.aspx

There's a dropdown that you can select to see all the products carried, I didn't have time to search for a loom, off to work I must go..

Cheers,

Bill in P.G.

Both of these are just the kits for the wiring harnesses...unplug the stock wiring harness from the stock radio, pull the radio, install the kit for the new radio, install new radio, attach wires from kit to radio leads, plug harness into kit...blam.

next question...how to get rid of the stock radio since it's fricking huge.

since your only splicing in an amp you need both one plugs on the harness and the other to the radio...
