[QUOTE="r0b0n3cK, post: 8893132, member: 692718"] The red power wire is where I am currently getting the power to my amp from. I plug in and unplug every time I go somewhere. I'm fairly new to the whole wiring process but I feel I have a decent understanding of how it works, but couldn't figure out which wire coming from the factory head unit was the remote (every wire is grey. Courtesy of previous owner) I am currently powering my amp by piggybacking off of the red power cable to the remote terminal. I plug in and unplug every time I go somewhere. Because I couldn't figure out which wire was the remote wire, I figured a toggle switch and a fuse tap to bypass the head unit would elevate that problem. I'd rather learn something completely new (fuses) instead of trying to find which wire should be what color when eventually I'll buy a new head unit. Until then, would I be able to connect that fuse tap to a spare slot and if so, does it matter which one since I have it connected to the toggle switch anyway? I still have much to learn.. amperage/voltage/wire gauges etc... [/QUOTE]
