If you have a factory amp you need to bypass it. A harness is available to do this (quickest/easiest method) or you can make a bypass harness.

Like I said my car did not come with an amp! Are the LT models equipped with it as a standard option? I did buy my MC used but I know for sure that there's no amp here not one that I've seen at least

Sorry, I didn't see where you specified you didn't have a factory amp. The Bose system was an option. You could still have a factory amp and not the Bose upgrade. ;) Take a look (from the trunk) up under the rear shelf. If there is a rectangular metal box hanging there with a couple of wiring harnesses plugged into it that is your factory amp. To bypass it you'll need something like this:

Metra 70-2021 Factory Integration Adapter Connect a new car stereo and bypass the factory amp in select 2000-01 Chevy Monte Carlo and Impala models at Crutchfield.com

X2 on the factory amp thing kind of a thing with modern cars :)

I'm aware of where the amp is supposed to be but there's nothing there there's no wiring harness that'll indicate there was ever one there you know what I mean?

hey
 

Yup you could always run ur own speaker wire. Cut out the middle man plus factory speaker wire is crap at best :)

That's what I'm gonna have to do! But before I start running wire I wanna see if maybe I can get this problem sorted out! Also for some reason my service airbag sign came up any thoughts on that?

hey
 

Have you checked all of ur fuses ?

Airbag fuse blew but I replaced it! So does anyone know anything about the lost sound on my car??
