Its fairly simple to do.....if you know what you are doing. Basically you have to tap off the factory wire harness to the OEM sub amp. It will involve using a tester (ohm meter) to chase down the turn on lead and the low level input signal. If you don't know how to do this, then don't try. Bring it to a shop and have them convert the factory plug to an RCA type plug. Then you can install the new amp yourself.

Good Luck.

Post really easy

check out my website, there are instructions there. It depends on if you have a seperate sub amp, if my diagram is correct or not. Let me know, I'll get you the schematic for a rca level output and remote wire on.

I used to have an entirely stock system but had a Phoenix Gold Amp hooked to it, powering my JL W3 12"
