Did you adjust all your gains properly? Bad gain setting can cause this. Also it might be your head unit ground causing this. What i would do is do a make shift ground for all your units to one spot. If that doenst work, gound them all up to the battery. you dont have to be clean here, run the wires outside of the truck...just for test purposes...if this aliviates your noise, you can take each ground one by one, regrounding to their original spot and listening to the stereo each time you move a ground, then you will find the problem piece in your chain
Oh, and your make shift ground doenst need to be super thick since you arent blasting the stereo...your jsut trying to isolate the engine /alt whine

I haven't had the tine to pull the rear seat off again, but I found something really strange with the rca's. If I leave either set unplugged from the h/u the noise disappears. So right now I have the back unplugged with no noise from the front. The sub amp rca's haven't been messed with.

what i did in my truck to aviod the feed back was to run the power wire on the driversr side and the rca's on the passenger side. its the same feed back you get with your car radio when you drive under power lines or anything of that nature. its just the natural harmonic.

Google Pico fuse....this might be causing it too...have you pulled the RCA's off while the radio was still either on or playing? Pioneers suck for this!

If you think it is head unit related unplug the rcas at the head unit if the noise is still there it is something else. Unplug the rcas at the amp if it is still there it is ground related at the amp.... Ground the exterior of the chassis of the amp I saw you mounted it on wood....
