I was going to get a wiring harness to tap into the existing amp, so I can keep my sub woofer.

Are any one of these wiring harness, a better pick for the 98es

I heard some other suggest to bypass the amp, but i do not want to lose the woofer.

I have the stock pioneer radio; I am not sure but are the speakers 4 ohms or 2 with this unit?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have and will continue to always recommend any brand over a Jensen unit. If you aren't a serious audiophile then it is ok. Otherwise I would look into a Kenwood, Alpine, or Pioneer.

no, that HU is god aweful. run alpine, eclipse, calrion or pioneer. only units worth using.

IMO I would stay away from the Jensen brand. shop crutchfield, for comparisons, and you can find deals elsewhere. But crutchfield is a excellent company to deal with. and they supply you all harnesses, but maybe not the particular dash kit you need but do if they carry. I agree with Pioneer, Alpine, Eclipse as well.
If your planning on keeping all factory speakers, make sure to get something with some HPF built in. Also consider the ground loop isolator. Kills the alternator whine that can be heard through the speakers.

Wal-Mart sells Jensen radios. I walked up to one a few days ago and half the buttons were missing, the tiliting screen no longer worked, they are crap! For $529 you can get a Pioneer Avic D3 and still have $150 in your pocket. GL

Alpine ALL day!

^ ground loop isolators are no good. they just cover up the problem, they dont solve it. they also kill SQ. i do agree on the need for a high pass on witch ever HU the OP choses. stock speakers need to be crossed at like 150hz, lol.

you can find a good name brand 4v HU for $200-400 depending on what features you want (DVD, NAVI, BT)

thanks will keep looking...

So with a new HU, should i bypass the stock amp and wire it through my own amp?

I was planning to keep the stock speakers and woofer for now.

Why do you want to change your head unit? If your looking for better SQ you probably won't notice any difference by just changing the head unit.
