I have an 07 SXT, single disc, satellite, 6 speakers, etc. Which wiring harness do I need to get to upgrade to an aftermarket nav system? I'd like to keep using the factory amp (if I have one - how do I tell?) and speakers for now. Thanks in advance - this forum has been a huge help to me already.

i just got one for my sxt with the boston acoustic yesterday. i went through hell finding it and it costs some money. it 110 bucks and made by axxess
www.axxessinterfase.com phone # 1800-221-0932 part # xsvi-6502 i went to best buy and circuit city but both are backordered so went to a local stereo shop. the only problem is the remote wire was not on the harness so i am going to try to just hook up to a fuse. i will post tomorrow wheather it works or not. and am planning on calling the company to find out the deal about it.

If you have no amp - http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?search=120svi6502&i=120SVI6502
If you do have amp - http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?search=metra+chto%2D01&i=120CHTO01
These can also both be purchased at your local Best Buy and the XSVI-6502 is the only $51.00 there the other i believe is 120 or 130, I have the 4 speaker and SE with no amp so mine worked perfect with the XSVI.
There are other brands you can get, the Scoche will also work and various wal-marts will have the one that will fit your car, if i'm not mistaken one of there models has both applications in one box (with or without amp harness's).
Hope that helps!
BY THE WAY - I would recommend hooking into your cigarette lighter or anything at all, if you use the correct harness it will make EVERYTHING work if you have to use a harness and still cut into factory wiring somewhere you did something wrong or got a bad harness, dont cut inot factory wiring cause the dealer will see what you have done if you ever have wiring issues and void your warranty for just about every damn thing in your dash thats electrical if you do ANYTHING AT ALL whatsoever to there factory stuff. Just an FYI so you dont start cuting even into your cigarrette lighter like the above guy did.
