Posted February 20, 200817 yr I have an 06 impala and plan on installing my head unit in the next few days... I was wondering if anyone knew if it would hurt to hook my deck up without using the door chime box with the stage 2 harness. I have a bad habit of not wearing my seatbelt and do not want to listen to my car beep over and over again when im not buckled in . Does anyone know if it would hurt anything to just wire up the harness and cut the chime box plug off (or just leave it unhooked) when I install my stereo?
February 20, 200817 yr I believe that harness controls other things as well as the door chime harness. I know the older models had airbag control as well.I wouldn't chance it. Do it right the first time.

As far as not using a class 2 harness you will run into some minor issues. Depending on the platform you lose door chimes/dummy lights/keyless entry programming/dome lights. You do not have a 12v switched wire in your harness as it is computer controlled as well.
