[QUOTE="Mzsunshine41075, post: 8721892, member: 681459"] I can't thank you enough for answering all these questions. I thought connecting the subs to the rear door factory speakers was for the signal.... if not, what did I need to connect them for? And this signal is so that the subs know when they are needed in the actual music itself, is that right? Man I probably sound like an idiot to all of you. So I either need to put speaker wires into the HLI or use RCA'S? I do not need to do both tho. Also, does this make a difference or change at all since I have tapped into the rear door factory speakers, connecting them directly to the aftermarket subs wires at the back of sub box for the signal? I ask this because since I am new to all of this I am curious that if I take the sub wires off the "speaker out" at the amp and instead connect them to the HLI does this affect the factory rear door speakers that I tapped into for the signal? While I am here...should I be hooking the 6 factory speakers to their own amp or to the one with the subs, or do I not need to hook them to one at all for better sound/clarity/volume since I am installing the subs with an amp? If so and an individual amp is your answer how big of one do I need for the 6 factory speakers? Now about that remote wire[B]...[/B]is there anything i can tap into in the sides or rear of vehicle to tap into it so amp comes on when car is started? I always have radio on so not worried about having amp go on and off when radio is turned off and on, but I am thinking about putting a dial to turn the bass down when my Grandbabies are in car with me. That's a whole separate list of ?'s though [/QUOTE]
