     Next time it would be helpful to know what kind of car
     it is, what year, etc.  They did change a bit from
     year to year.  But, if it's a setup like the Bose
     system on the V8, the only problem with changing
     the head unit will be a load "thump" when the
     radio is turned on and off.  This "thump" can be
     solved by adding an isolation transformer between
     the line-outs of the head unit, and the speaker
     line-inputs.  The isolation transformers are readily
     available at any Radio Shack and are called ground loop
     isolators.
