Need audio help w/sub hook up, PLEASE
I have an 05 C6 coupe w/the bose/Nav system. Yes it basically sucks, but I have disconnected the dash speaker and replaced the small speakers in the doors as many others suggested. Now i just want a little Bass in the sytem. I am thinking of just putting in a Bazooka sub w/built in amp, just enough to give me a little base and not to $$$$. My question is, how do i hook up the bazooka? Run wires from the rear speakers, or is there a connector i can buy with RCA plugs that just plugs into the rear of the stereo and into the bozooka/ Any advise would be nice...

do not run to rear speakers it will not run right. you need to run to the back of the headunit and splice in rcas, its addressed in the c6 faq otherwise my self or someone else can go into more detail. Basically u order the pacaddgm24 harness from sonicelectronic splice in rca connectors to the end of it and plug it all in

Here are some instructions I put together on how to tap the signal.

Or you can do as Penta suggested and use the ADD-GM24 harness, clipping off the output end and soldering on some female RCA's.

I am sorry, but that's no help! I can't make heads or tales from those pics. On my old c5 I bought a PAC "something" that just plugged into the rear of the stereo and then into the amp. I then ran the wires from the amp to the sub and "perfect" the old Bose sounded great. Is'nt there just a PAC of some type made for the C6 Bose/Nav system that i can just plug and play...???
