i just tried installing my jvc dvd 5100 deck. when i spliced the harnesses together i accidently cars power remote antenna(the black thing one with the 2 prongs) to one of the bare wires on the harness and it sparked for a sec. im retarded and i forgot the tape that one up and it happened to touch it. so now neither the aftermarket or the bose radio will work. im gonna lose it. i cant beleive this happened. do you think i burnt out the power antenna and now neither deck will turn on. if so how do i fix this. or is there jsut an antenna. please help me. ahhhhhhhhhh!

Probably just the fuse. Check the fuse on the back of the radios, and the audio/acc fuse in the fuse box and under the hood. If not check as many of the other fuses as you can.

omg dude i love you.... i fixed it..... iwas so scared..... mite as well ask another qquestion before i tackle this install again. since i have to ground 2 things, the actually ground then the wire to the parking break, can i just connect them 2gether then ground them? it makes sense to me..... is that a bad idea?

That would be fine. I do recommend them both terminating at the final grounding point though.

ok so i install the deck and the bose sounds alright, but does get as loud as before. the sub however sounds a lot better since im using it off the headunit and not the line out converter. however, now i have a realy annoying problem. i spliced the rcas and pluged them into the rca outputs of the deck. now, when i ever i do certain things like, change the radio station, change some of the presents or turn the car on and off, i got a popping noise through speakers. ino it have something to do with the bose because if i unplug the spliced rcas and just use the subs, they dont pop. what would i have done wrong. its sooooooo annoying.
