[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8667790, member: 576029"] could be that the wires were used as a remote turn-on signal (since some lighting circuits have voltage when the car is on and are triggered by a grounding pin). certainly, it's unlikely it was a good idea at the time. you wanted to pay attention to where they went (what specific connection on the amp), but that is something to remember for next time. remove the old cables entirely, back to the rear harness. insulate the factory wiring with electrical tape where you remove the connection.
