[QUOTE="Nico Yazawa, post: 8619662, member: 674412"] Yeah, there is no remote plugin thing but since I'm using the factory headunit for now, not having one is kind of a big deal since I won't have independent sub control. I was thinking of using something like this: [URL="https://www.walmart.com/ip/PAC-LC-1-Bass-Knob-Universal-Remote-Level-Control-with-Female-RCA-Interconnect/21550475?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=5254&adid=22222222227015594858&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=40838701112&wl4=aud-310687321802:pla-78652110752&wl5=9019274&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=114435154&wl11=online&wl12=21550475&wl13=&veh=sem"]https://www.walmart.com/ip/PAC-LC-1-Bass-Knob-Universal-Remote-Level-Control-with-Female-RCA-Interconnect/21550475?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=5254&adid=22222222227015594858&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=40838701112&wl4=aud-310687321802:pla-78652110752&wl5=9019274&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=114435154&wl11=online&wl12=21550475&wl13=&veh=sem[/URL] That's probably my best bet, huh?
