WTF do you have missmatched fuses in there?

 

[Nwocrydad]

Not good I take it?

Not much help there, man. Noob just wanting a sub. Pointing me in the right direction would help, not just asking questions you can answer with your own eyes.

The fuses won't matter.

First get some spade terminals.

Bridge channel 3 and 4.

How can I answer the question with my eyes?

If I had to guess I would say that amp has popped fuses many times due to bad running conditions and the fuses were replaced with whatever could be found.

Before you try running a sub off that crappy amp that already blows fuses I would like to address what is causing that and fix it.

But since you are a know it all dikhole you can figure it out yourself

Jeez man.

New to me car, had the amp in it. You can see the fuses in the picture, with your eyes. Thats all I was saying.

What is the amp already running and are you going to unhook what it is running?

The amp is running my 4 interior speakers. Would I need to disconnect a pair or could I just bridge with the speakers still plugged up?

You have to disconnect them

That amp does nto produce the power you need to run a sub.

Bridged it is rated at 130 watts x 1

It is an old amp and best suited for running the speakers that it is currently hooked up to.

Add a new mono-block amp and new wiring if you want to run a sub.

Also buy a pair of matching 25 amp fuses and put those in so it doesn't look so ghetto fabbed.

It's enough to run a sub. Will it have much output, probably not. Will it work, absolutely.
