ok i know im gona need the PIE connector or a line level convertor for the RCA's to the amp, but what about the turn on wire? could i just use the darkgreen/violet wire thats supposed to turn on the factory sub? mine doesnt have the connector so i guess im SOL? its pin number 4 on the plug. i know i could prob tap the fuse box for a ignition wire. alldata says less than 5ohms between the sub amp and radio. greater then 10k ohms between the sub and ground. think thatll work if i either get a connector or tap a wire into the back of the radio?

so were does the sub plug plug into?

what kind of head unit do you have? every aftermarket unit I've put in had the RCA inputs on the back....

thats stock i believe

stock 04 6 disc.it would be a ton easier with an aftermarket HU, but i want to keep the stocker...

me and a bud just used a convertor from best buy on my amp, we just used those connectors that splice into the wire and ran the RC cables to the amp, works everytime, i can remember the wires we did tho we just googled them i believe

jbhill

the rca cables isnt the problem, its the amp turn on wire im concerned with.
