Well if it's from the Head unit and says "Remote" it goes to an aftermarket AMP.
I didn't want to bother with wiring the old OEM amp into my configuration. that AMP sucks ***. it would overheat with the original stuff hooked up to it so I didn't even want to bother.
a nice Alpine PDX-5 took care of everything for me.

Hey Kwoteman, I recently bought a custom head unit and amplifier with accessories, and subsequently decided to sell my car (Lexus GS300 2002)...SO I have everything you will need, and I can sell it to you for a very low price. I would have returned it but i missed Amazon's stupid 30-day window haha.
The head unit and amp are Pioneer. Message me or email me for more info
2002 GS300

Hi Exsys2000 or anyone that can help - Guys iam going through a trauma wrecking my tiny brains against installing a new aftermarket head unit to my 1998 lexus gs300. My current system is a w/ nakamichi . What i want is to be able to connect a new aftermarket radio to my existing amp which is is near the front dash board and still be able to use the factory speakers. If you can help with the pdf diagram that will be exceptionally great. I am located in Australia and my email address is rence2@gmail.com
Best regards to all LEXUS fans.
