How to wire a switch to turn stock sub on/off...

So I am selling my car (04' A4 Ultrasport), but am going to put in 2 12" Type R's that I have to listen to until it sells. It's like a brand new stock car, and I want to keep it that way because aftermarket stereo usually doesn't help the sale (people want untouched, pampered cars, which this is ) Anyways, in order to unhook the stock bose sub in my rear deck, I have to remove some stuff and take it out, which I've heard isn't the easiest for my particular car. So my goal is to be able to listen to my subs, then when somebody test drives it to be able to take out the subs and have the stock sub playing so they have some bass from the Bose. Any ideas on how I could wire up a switch or something really simple and that would require no permanent modification to turn the stock sub on and off? I was thinking I'll just cut the neg. speaker wire going to the sub right after the stock amp and crimp a little female and male connector to disconnect when I have the Alpines in. Any other ideas/comments?
