this ebay auction says the new adapter only allows 2 inputs? i want left, right, and front and back, which adapter allows me to do this?

I'm planning a

adapter
new head unit
all 4 new speakers
4 channel amp for speakers
tweeters
subwoofer amp
and a sub box

which adapter do i need?

If you are going to run a 4 channel amp and a sub amp you are going to be running RCA cables to the amps from the new head unit so those wire mean nothing to you. And I am running that adapter and the front and rears are set digitally with the pac adapter. It only has two inputs so I can get left and right the front and rear it set by the amp.
And that’s not a good price I paid 79.99 from a local dealer for that adapter

so do i need this harness for replacing the basic sxt radio with an aftermarket radio? I suppose i just need to plug the 22 pin part of the harness into the car, and wire from there?
what if i unplugged the factory radio, and ran all new wires for everything?

this sounds really complicated

ok, let me rephrase that

what on the harness will i wire to my radio? i'll wire the radio to the amps, then amps directly to the speakers? or do i need to run those amp outs back into the harness?

You need that adapter to do it right and not void your warranty. And the adapter is the way you get your ignition wire the stock radio gets it on signal from the can-bus system your aftermarket deck needs a +12 volts source to turn the deck on the nitro does not have that. This adepter talks to the can-bus system and give you that +12 volt to tell the deck to come on. You can wire directly to the fuse box but then you lose the deck shutting off when the door opens and that’s another wire running throw your dash that has +12 for noise.
You will wire the deck to the needed wires in this harness then the deck to the amps and the amps to the speakers.

gotcha, i see now, thanks! I really appreciate your help! so "wire the deck to the needed wires in this harness " means just the 12 volt acc. wire?

also, can i run the aplified signal from the amp into this harness?( cause the harness will distribute the wires where they go) or do i run new wires to each speaker?
