:iagree:. That would be the place for the answer! Good Luck! I know it has been done! Page leolufse or Kale over in the Audio section. Another helpful link will be to this page for the needed converter for the amplifier. http://www.davidnavone.com/

You should be able to use a Peripheral adapter, part# P55A and tap into the factory wiring. If the antenna remote turn on wire is not strong enough to turn on the amplifier (for the subwoofer) you can use an LVT also from Peripheral to get the voltage for the remote turn on for your new amp. Most decent stereo shops will carry Peripheral or PAC products and will be able to order these parts for you if they don't normally stock them.

This is assuming you are adding an amp. The stock amplifier really doesnt have enough power to run a decent subwoofer in case you were thinking of riggin somethin up.

i just did it. I don't have the RCA wire diagram anymore. But you can email Mike76002 and he will email it to you. The remote turn on lead is the dark green one (the second wire from the left of the biggest connector).
