Glad that you sorted it. For all others who are planning to run harness, please run it:
-HU to passenger side
-On passenger side, it should pass deep under the passenger footwell carpet. If you keep it superficial or relatively up, there is a fuse box, junction box and chances are that it will pick interference.
- Connect your earth to earth terminals or directly to battery as per your preferences.

Hope that make sense.

That is normal. Only DSP, or possibly clean sweep will take it out.
It happens on max volume most of the time.

But I am glad that it worked for you.
