Good product

Perfect fit for 02-04 Acura RSX...bypasses bose amp and does not clutter the dash. A must for any aftermarket radio being put into this car. Thanks Sonic!

Excellent

If you're installing an aftermarket deck on an RSX w/Bose, and wish to keep the factory amp, this is what you want. Fewer wires to splice, and no line-level converter to mess with, so you get better sound. Other mobile audio sites no longer carry this harness, forcing you to buy a $20 converter to make their "free" harness work properly in your RSX. Thankfully, Sonic Electronix has the right parts for the job!

Perfect fit

Used this on my Acura RSX with Bose when I installed my Jensen VX7020 Navi system. This is the correct part.

Quality

This is a well built harness, period. I prefer Metra to Scosche.

Not sure what it's for??

I got this free with my deck and it is not quite the one I needed. I have no idea why you would need the RCA style connections. I installed a jvc deck which has aftermarket amp connections so I needed the regular harness. I ended up cutting the RCA things off and connecting the speaker wire connections to the wires but not ideal.

great product! especially for free

This thing is awesome, just wire up your power etc, then hook up the rcas to the front and rear out of your head unit! Super simple and works great.

Great Product

Install was easy and everything worked flawlessly. I paired this with a Kenwood BT headunit for my 05 RSX type S. The only thing is to make sure you know which RCA jack on the harness corresponds to which speaker port on the back of the radio. I found the info easily online. Thanks Sonic!!!!
