And I have Onstar and the module and so would not like to lose this. I can check the wire diagram to see if I can figure out which is the voice out....maybe I can splice that to RCA and then put into the Front 2 input of the Rockford and do the mix via software to front left channel???
This got me thinking - watch out!

Why don't you just do this the easy way? Run 3 sets of RCA's from your head unit to the 3Sixty.3. Then, take one set of RCA's from the X3 and run them into the remaining 2 channels. This would work, no doubt about it. If you need some extra comfort, you could run the X3 RCA's through a LOC to reduce the level. I think the 3Sixty.3 could handle the higher input no problem, but you may want the added protection.

Another option could be not connecting the speaker outputs from the head unit to the Scosche harness. The OnStar module would probably still output through to the X3, but I'm not 100% sure about that. I'd recommend what I said above. I'd stay away from cutting up a bunch a wires in my dash.
