[QUOTE="Alpineforever, post: 4087199, member: 585728"] Click the link, he is getting two SD 1 12's and an SAX 100.2 I'm assuming that when he buys the 100.2 he will use that with the subs and not have it sit around and collect dust while he uses his factory amplifier. My question is: Is your factory amp hooked up to your head unit and power source (battery) right now? If i is, how big is the wire used for power and ground (4 AWG, 6 AWG, or 8AWG or what?) (Power wire is the one going to battery, ground should be grounded on the frame nearby). These wires should be the biggest ones connected to your amplifier. You may be able to mount the 100.2 where your factory amp is mounted and use your current wiring. The 100.2 should have any heat problems where your factory amp is located, but I may be wrong. Anyways you could use your current wiring and then just get speaker wire to connect your subs to the amp. Depending on where you go the labor charge may be anywhere between 100 and 200 dollars depending on how they charge, and if they charge for removal of your factory amplifier and factory sub. I would do it myself and with more input from the forum here you can definitely do it yourself [/QUOTE]
