Ok, I am gonna do this the correct way, for the final time. Here's the deal. Go to http://www.go2pac.com/ . Now, look under the products section and choose the OEM-1 interface. Once you have that chosen, look at the "app guide" to see which "C cable" you will need. On a 89-94 with BOSE, you need the "ADD-NIS1" cable. On a 95-02 with BOSE, you need the "ADD-NIS2" cable.

Now, in addition to those cables, you will need 2 other parts in order to use the factory radio with aftermarket amps, subs, etc. The first part is the "OEM-1". This is similar to the box you got at Circuit City, but trust me, it works much better. The "SNI-35" that you got at Circuit City SUCKS. I know other threads that I've posted in said to use it, but this information is more recent, especially after a 2 hour conversation with Circuit City, Best Buy, AND Sound Advice.

Then you need the appropriate output cable, which is normally an RCA output. The part number for this is "AMP-RCA".

Now that you have all the part numbers, where do you order this stuff from, how much does it cost, and when can I get it. Well.... Here you go.http://www.tune-town.com/ has all the parts. Or you can pay more and order them from http://www.crutchfield.com/ . I paid less than $100 for all 3 parts and overnight shipping via UPS.

Hopefully this helps.
