Do I have to do all of these steps to get to the rear of the radio or to completely remove it? If it is to completely remove it only what will I need to do to just get to the back of the radio? I am sorry I think I phrased my question wrong earlier. Sorry again.

I understand that you need to get to the back of the radio to hook up your AMP.
If you only need 2 Channels & Turn ON, you could get the Rear Channels from the Harness & the Turn ON at the Ignition Switch.
Otherwise, you do need to go thru the Removal Instructions to get to the Back of the radio.
It's not as hard as it sounds, but it will take a little time.
