Default Installing subs and amp to stock navi

Hey I'm getting ready to install 2 10'' kicker l5's with a Rockford Fosgate 800 2 channel punch. I will buy a new amp kit, twisted RCA cables, Rockford Fosgate 1 farad cap and LOC converter since I will be using my stock navi. My question is should I tap into the door subs so I don't loose any power to the rear speakers for the LOC or is there a better location? Any tips are advice is appreciated!

I was looking into this for my fiances car and found this:
Audio Interfacing

That should work and give you the best quality sound. I haven't tried it yet, but you could call them and make sure.

When I had my solobaric in my trunk I couldn't get the solobaric and the door subs to both work at the same time...Do you need a y splitter for the two?

So you tapped into the rear speakers than from there straight to the amp which kind of LOC did you use and what did you to tap in to for the remote power?

I also wanna add an aftermarket amp and 2 12s so from what i've gathered is you need a locb.2 and tap into the rear speakers!! For the turn on lead the easiest way i've read to do it is to buy fuse taps and use fuse #5 which becomes hot when the ignition is on!!
I'm totally new to the whole audio system thing so just research this up and hopefully I pointed you in the right direction!!
