Question:

Do I wire the 'antenna wire' from my stereo to wiring harness or remote wire from amp?

I bought a wiring harness for my 99 durango and when I got my boss 758dbi head unit there is a blue wire labled antenna wire. Do I wire the blue wire from the stereo to the harness? If so where do I wire the remote wire from amp?

Answer:

The antenna wires goes to the wire harness from the stereo and the remote wire can go to any other power supply (fuse) that is only hot with the ignition key on.
Connect both. The blue wire in the adapter harness and the remote wire from the after-market amplifier can both be connected to the antenna wire from the Boss head unit. In a Boss deck, this wire works as a remote output, not a true power antenna output (ie, it's active whenever the head unit is switched on, not just when the tuner is selected).
try it with a multimeter - all you want for an amp distant/set off is a cord that shows 12V+ at the same time as the ignition is on. Technically any accent potential cord behind the sprint will do the pastime - at the same time with splicing into the ciggarette potential cord as an party.
