This is for a friends truck, not mine.
Was looking for some help in installing an aftermarket amplifier and subwoofers in an 03 explorer. It's got the good sound system with the 6cd indash changer and subwoofer and amp in the rear.
Here are my questions. We got the wiring diagram and I was thinking of tapping into the signal lines going to the rear sub-amp. His amp has high-level inputs so a line converter is not necessary. Is this OK? This amp is for subwoofer amp only, so I'm not worried about the signal only being bass or whatever.
Second, where would you recomend I connect the remote turn on lead to? We can't figure out how the heck to get the headunit out, and I'd rather plug into something near the back of the vehicle anyway. Doesn't matter if it's just an ignition controlled power, just so long as the amp plays when he's got the key on and shuts off with the vehicle.
Thanks!
