PAC AOEM-FRD24

Used the speaker wire input for the amp but it does give the option for RCA but I didnt use them. Colors match the pioneer harness. I cut off the connector that goes to the pac and spliced wires to the pioneer input harness then from the pioneer output harness back to the factory speaker wires. Soldered and shrink wrapped then electrical tape. This way worked for me for but it all depends on what you want to do. If you have an amp that only has RCA inputs you still need to cut and splice the wires going into the factory harness for the door speakers. This amp is only rated for 45 watts rms so the stock wires are ok to use. If your running say 100watts rms or more than you would probably want to run new thicker gauge wire.
*I am not a professional so use at your own risk.
Left connector is radio to amp.
Right connector is amp back to factory harness.

I finally had time to get the amp hooked up. Everything works great, mids and highs are extremely loud. Besides ground and power its plug and play with the pac harness. I did run a power wire directly from the battery and didn't need to use the remote turn on since it senses power from the speakers.

Try the kenwood KAC-M3004 they did a great write up on it on youtube and it puts out over 700w. I am getting ready to get one for my 2007 Street Glide.
rated at 150x2 @ 4Ohms and did 192 & 187 at 13.9v at 4ohms and on dynamic it did 243w & 233w @ 14.5v
on 2Ohms it did 374w & 357w @ 2 ohms not bad for a tiny amp
