^ Great way to start your posting here Silver Tiburon.
Although I think that desoldering the harness is a bit far to go - I'd rather keep my factory radio intact instead of keeping my factory wires intact - the diagrams you threw together here are definitely going to be re-used by me when helping people out with the ASWC.

Yeah I know it seems a little in depth but It's really not so bad. I have to pull my dash apart to install a backup camera soon so I'll take some shots of the harness when I have it apart. As far as the factory radio is concerned, I see them going for around $50 on Ebay and Craigslist. I can always buy another Bose radio....a wiring harness for my car in not only much harder to find, but much more difficult to replace. It's all up to the user in the end though. To me a plug and play setup was just so much more appealing than keeping my Bose unit laying around for a rainy day, or selling it to make a few extra bucks. I'm going to try and make a video of the whole process which will make it much easier to understand and seem less overwhelming. When people say solder everyone gets scared. Where would the world electronics industry be without electrical tape and crimp connectors

Might be a dumb question, but after you remove the white plugs from the Bose headunit and connect the wires, what do you connect the white plug to? Since you said it was plug and play now.
I'm going to be doing this soon, installing it in combination with the Bose amp using the PAC ROEM-NIS2.

Hi,
I just installed the Metra ASWC on a Pioneer AVH-P4300, followed the instructions and it worked great. Except the power button. I read somewhere that for the power button you will need to do a custom program on the ASWC. Does anyone knows how to do it?.
I will post a picture I took when testing the connections, in case it helps to the ones that are still having problems.

I made the harness tonight using the head unit plug and it's not programming... It says the gray/red wire is not connected but it's clearly in the harness, the other wires don't come up when trouble shooting. I don't know what to do...I'm afraid if I tap right into the factory wires it still won't program.
