Yeah, that'll work. By original, do you mean stock/OEM? I believe all you'd need to purchase is a wiring harness that would connect your new Kenwood double din head unit to your existing equipment. Where ever you're buying the head-unit from should be able to sell you the harness as well.
Um, I suggest you wait for MR2NR to respond. He's in BC too. He runs an audio shop somewhere in your province. He should be able to help further. If he doesn't end up responding to your question. Send him a private message on the matter.

Good Luck.

Nope, not a ford. Sounds more like a GM or a Nissan. You need a Bose interface but yes this can be done. Drop me a PM or msn to forbidden@telus.net and we can get you sorted out.

Im in whistler.... I was hoping that someone out there had performed the swap. So tell me does each speaker have a mini amp tied into it? If thats the case then I assume rewiring each one will be required. Bose bites dick!!!!
