That looks like it's an all in one kit that includes the alert/chime adapter. I have an 02 andI bought the harness and the chime adapter seperately. If you wanna save some money and feel like you don't need the reminder chime(s) you should be able to go to Autozone, pep boys, or best buy and get just the harness for $20 or less.

Different car, but I had a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am. With that car, most of the electronics WOULD NOT work without the stock deck. I had to relocate it to the trunk or I would have lost ALL my power options!!
