Metra CHTO-01 Harness ISSUE (Beware)

Just a FYI for everyone. I ordered a metra CHTO-01 Harness from Circuitcity. I went to install it tonight and noticed it was missing all the required navigation wires (VSS wire, reverse wire, ect). It is the old harness (It says for 2005-2006 300). The new one says 2005-2007 I believe. Be careful a lot of people are selling the old harness (it looks as if even crutchfield is as well). You need to get the one with the VSS and Reverse wire if you are getting a new navi system. I am pretty mad since I started to connect everything before I noticed it and now can't return it and need to order another updated one.

I got mine from Crutchfield back in October and it had all the required connections. Have you contacted Metra?

It does!!! But the metra harness converts it into a signal and ouputs it via a vss wire... The harness I got did not have the vss wire and did not convert the wire for my z2....
