That is what I do, since I don't want to remove the OEM sub on the deck or alter the vehicle to add another sub to the rear deck.

For ML, do you know which wires are the two front speakers? Going to be tackling this install in the next couple weeks when I get some time

Does anybody know where to tap for the "remote turn on" on the amp side? I can not seem to find it.

The remote wire is on the smaller harness on the amp. I am at work and don't have the diagram in front of me now.
