[QUOTE="pdtran, post: 2706488, member: 573200"] Started last night by just putting in my head unit with the stock system...surprisingly it sounded a lot better than stock. Decided that today I was going to install everything else with a buddy of mine. Got home from school, took out my deck to plug in the RCAs and decided that I was going to run it through the center console (found a walk through on how to do this on my car) and run it under the carpet to the left side of the trunk (where the stock amp is located). Then it started raining/thundering like shit when I opened my trunk to make ground connections and power connections to my amps. Didn't want to stop empty handed and with everything removed, so I decided to just do it ghetto, run the RCAs just through the skipass hole that I got cut (i am a bass head and got that part taken care of). After everything I realized that I didn't have a remote turn on/off wire so the amp wouldn't power on...lol....dumb i know, but this is my first time doing an install and I just got into car audio. I was wondering though, [B]would I just be able to tap into the remote wire to the factory amp with TWO wires to plug into both of my amps?[/B] Another dumb question...[B]once I replace my speakers and all, I can disconnect the four Left/Right Rear/Front Speaker wires to the head unit and tape them up since they are connected to my amps right? Am I right in believing that these connections are just to power it off the HU's internal amp?[/B] Will def. take pics when I am done with it all.. [/QUOTE]
