Replacing GF's Bose HU - 4th gen.

Replacing GF's Bose HU - 4th gen.
I'm sure this has been answered somewhere, but I was looking at this thread: http://forums.maxima.org/audio-elect...nt-thread.html
And bought the Metra 70-7551, which looks like it has two wiring harness, with two RCAs on the end going into the HU.
Now, if her HU only has one set of Pre-outs, how should I hook this up? Would a splitter work?
Or should we be looking into getting a new HU? Sorry, I've never dealt with Bose before, and she needs a HU with iPod integration.
Thanks!

Would be better to have a HU that has 4 outputs. Or you could use a splitter but then you're splitting the output voltage of the HU in half, which means likely that the HU is 2-4 volts and so you'll be getting 1-2 volts per side.

Lol....not sure what the budget is going to be yet. Also, I may get lucky (not in that way, lol) and it may have 4 pre outs. However, if we are in the market I'll keep ya in mind
Thanks for the help nismos14

Ok, I'm looking through the install thread for replacing the bose HU, and I just need some clarification on the grounds situation.
So far there are 3 grounds: 1 from each Metra harness, and 1 from the new HU. Are they all grounded to the chassis via the frame? Or do you not ground the ones from the Metra Harnesses?
Also, is there a solution for popping or alternator whine when replacing the bose? I've been reading that some people have a problem with that after HU replacement?
Thanks guys.

I hate to bump, but I'd like to know this before I do it.
Are there three grounds for this setup? All grounded to the chassis?
If it's just the HU grounded to the chassis, what do I do with the other two coming out of the metra harnesses?

I ground em all. There typically isn't a factory wire in the corresponding pin of at least one of the two spots where your two metra wires are, but it makes life easier to just ground em all in my opinion (because as an installer I often prep the harness prior to removing the stock radio)
