Strongly considering your radio for my ‘18 Wrangler JL. I’m planning on bypassing the OEM Alpine amp using PAC interface to incorporate aftermarket amps. This includes a T-harness for the big box plug. Compatible?
It is. But our radio has Preamp outputs and a TOSLYNK output. So the PAC interface really is used to make preamps from the factory radio hi level outputs. I really don’t know that it’s necessary for anything outside of a simple way around rewriting past the OEM Amp. But if that what you want to do.

Hello, I recently installed an android radio for a 2013 mustang which has a pioneer amplifier connected with high level inputs and it turns on with the signal from the speakers but since I installed the Android the amplifier does not turn off when I turn off the car, do you have any idea of What could cause that? I am thinking that the radio continues to send a signal even when it is turned off
So we don’t make a system for the 13 Mustang. So I can’t say for sure what is happening because we didn’t build it to know how it is effectively doing amp turn on. It could be the radios CanBus is set wrong. It could be the harness is built wrong. It could be something internal on the radio is messed up and not switching its signal.
Nothing for the new body style GM trucks. GM locked the CanBus and started to use LanBus as well. So there is no tooling are ability for aftermarket companies to get into the trucks system to start reading or writing code :/ so currently we are stuck and moving VERY SLOW trying to figure a way around it.
