Retained Accessory Power Harness

I was searching Metra's application guide and came across the XSVI-2103 harness. This allows you to keep Retained Accessory Power(the thing that keeps your radio on for upto 10 minutes or until you open your door.) I've been wanting this feature for my aftermarket stereo for quite some time. Well I was looking at harnesses because my stereo was stolen recently, and I am getting the replacement off Crutchfield and pocketing the $150 difference between the free accessories and the installation I had added to the estimate.

I will be getting this harness and will review it.

A BIG note this harness is for 2005-2006 Non-Onstar systems only.

Most cobalts keep RAP on the sunroof and wiper fuses. If not one of the spares has been known to do so as well.

I use my wiper fuse and it doesn't have RAP, and the sunroof, power windows(i have neither), and spare fuse slots on my LS don't have wiring going to them. I've tried everything I read I could. It's a $50 harness and since I will have money left over It'll be basically free.
