[QUOTE="Zpop, post: 8788960, member: 685895"] Okay - you’re helping a lot! Appreciate it! So just to confirm some things to make sure I have the gist of it before I dive into this project over the weekend (which will involve taking the whole dash apart again which was a giant PITA the first time) I will need to purchase a add a circuit kit that is specific to the types of fuse sizes I have in my car - any specific amp rating I should aim for when tapping into a fuse? 15 and above based on the manual? Wire that up to a 14 AWG power wire, as well as grounding a wire to a bare metal surface somewhere in that general vicinity. After this, splice into the yellow and black wires that lead directly into the amps’ power harness itself with the two previously mentioned wires, taping off the opposite end that I cut. And with that I should be able to resolve the issue, and in the future be able to run aftermarket speakers no issue as well? Let me know if I’m missing anything - want to make sure I understand 100% before I attempt this project. Thanks again for your patience and understanding. [/QUOTE]
