Am installing and aftermarket NAV unit and need the loction/color of the VSS (speed sense) wire. The ca does not have factory Nav, so It doesn't seem to be in the factory radio harness. Where can I tap into the VSS for the add-on NAV unit? Thanks

There is not a VSS circuit, it is all done through a communications buss. I don't dabble in aftermarket audio, but I have seen some installations that have an interface module installed, that may be what you need. I would quiz an aftermarket installer, and see if they can provide you with some information. The factory schematic is the same for radio, or nav, and it has the buss circuit involved. The base system probably uses speed info for speed dependant volume, whereas NAV would use it for that, and GPS calculations.
