I'm keeping my Shaker 500 on by 2006 GT but replacing the door and rear deck speakers, adding a sub w/enclosure in truck, and amp under the seat The 8" door subs with OEM amps are staying. Here is what I have so far:

Door Speakers
INFINITY KAPPA 693.9i 3 way speakers - RMS: 220 watts per pair / 110 watts each / 2ohm


Rear Deck Speakers
INFINITY KAPPA 682.9cf 6x8 2 way speakers - RMS: 200 watts per pair / 100 watts each/ 2ohm

Sub Woofer
INFINITY 1262W 12" Sub - 100-300 watts RMS / 4ohm
MTX Thunderform Sub Enclosure (unloaded)

Amp
Alpine PDX-5 - 75 watts RMS x 4 + 300 watts RMS x 1

Connectors
PAC AOEM-FRD24 - Interface that Allows Replacement or Addition of an Amplifier in Select 2004-up Ford Vehicles without Factory Amplified THX Sound System

Tsuami 4 Guage Amp Install Kit for up to 850w RMS

I also have heat shrink tubing.


What else will I need? I am thinking 18 gauge speaker wire for the sub. Do I need to run speaker wires to the doors and rear deck or use the OEM existing wiring, and if so what gauge? Do I use a separate speaker wire to RCA adapter for the sub or just run the PAC connetor to the Amp and then amp to sub and speakers?

What else do I need for the install? Sorry for the ignorance, but this is a first time learning experience. Thanks in advance.

Use 10 or 12 gauge for the sub wiring. You will lose alittle with the 18 on the top end. Other than that you should be good to go.

Use 14 gauge for the sub wiring. You will lose alittle with the 18 on the top end. Other than that you should be good to go.

Sorry about that first post was reading the RMS wrong.

14 gauge it is for the sub.

Does anyone know what color wires to tap into pre-amp at the door sub to run a LOC from the sub to the amp?
