Help on installing aftermarket amps and speakers in 2005+ S197
So I've got a ton of Rockford fosgate equipment.
I'm looking to integrate several amps/speakers while keeping the stock headunit in my 2006 ford mustang GT with the shaker 500 system.
Currently I have already installed the speakers, as I did previously for sema.
I had hooked the speakers up through the stock wiring.
I'm now in a process of trying to get everything hooked up properly and I had several questions I had not found answer to on the board.
First I wanted to know if anyone had some references on wiring harnesses that would properly integrate a shaker 500 headunit into 4 rockford fosgate amps.
Next, I'm wondering what would be the best route to get proper signal from the headunit to all 4 amps?

Sorry but where did you get the Red Anodized Strut tower caps and the Carbon Fiber Strut tower brace.
As for your question I think the ONLY way to do it is with line converter like stated above.

I have a PAC2 line convertor but I have 3 amps at this moment and trying to figure out how to hook up that many amps. I'm holidng out to get the ford navigation unit.
On your second question the red caps are for that prototype Carbon fiber strut tower brace I had developed but hadn't come to the market at this time due to the colaberting company trying to screw us over. By taking our money and then never delivering product. Essentally taking our/my money making the products and trying to sell them theirselves. Some real scum bags.

Get a good HU with 3-way (sub/front/rear) outputs and you'll be much happier. Put you some quality comp sets in the front (6 1/2' will fit, ignore what they tell you) with the tweets right above the mids in the door (I went with Morel Dotech Ovations). And some decent rear fill coax's (5x7') (I went with Boston sx85's). The head will only cost about $300 (I went with the Alpine iAX-D001 and a 32b memory stick in the glove box). You'll be happy you did...

OK so is there a chance at this point that it will be available. I would really like one like that.
Also does the bar clear plenum covers?
