i did some checking on the interwebs and found the harness for the Bose radio is slightly different. there needs to be a power wire for the amp which the non-bose harness* doesn't have.
*EDIT: the non-bose aftermarket harness

i tried to use that but it failed to play sound out of the speakers, although appears to be working otherwise.
i have a sony deck and used the same wire tail (unprofessionally, but correctly spliced) with the same result.
my question is this: is there another step i'm missing somewhere or another connection/modification (thinking along the lines of having to bypass the fader on the w126 chassis)
thanks
