ok??? i didnt think i typed shope but alright....

well i get more and more confused as i continue to try and get an rca connection to the stock HU, as EVERYONE is telling me something different....now im hearning that its almost impossible and that i should tap into the "data cable" in the rear??? im such a noob here that i cant figure out what to do...

once again i have everythign else hooked up by the previous setup....bat. cable. ground wire. and turn on wire(installed into HU) is all in place already

all i need now in the signal!

NOTE: the amp has high level inputs what ever that means

If the amp has high level inputs then just splice into your rear speaker wires if you want to do it the easy way.

Usually low level inputs will allow for better sound quality, but I don't think you're too worried.

It's a high level input, it's going to sound like crap.

Once again, use the high level input on your amp it's pretty self explanitory, you have the piece that plugs into your amp and it has wires sticking out of it and you run that up to the speakers your tapping into and splice and connect them.

Or do it the right way, remove your door trim things and pull your cd player out plug in the RCA's to your deck route the RCA's to the trunk and plug them into the amp. This is so simple, im confused as to why this seems so difficult to you.

And if you want tap into your rear speakers and disconnect them at the same time, rear speakers are pointless anyway. Problem solved, no "power shortage" worries for you

But still what? There is nothing you can say thats good about your rear speakers that wont be better if you take them out. You cant even begin to create an argument about having rear speakers unless you have 5.1 in your car, which you do not and will not have in your car.

I dont know what "write up" your referring to. Those 2 sentences I typed up, thats how you do it. Thats it, yes thats it. Thats everything, it's so simple, you want it to be harder than it is, thats your problem. You think this should be some big project.

Your acting like changing your wiper blades is a motor rebuild. It's simple, it's so simple.

Stop making this hard. Your going to lose hair over this if you keep thinking so hard.

It's simple, it's simple, it's so simple.

Thats all you have to do, thats it. That is it. Those 2 sentences I typed. Thats everything! EVERYTHING! Thats all!

Go do it.







Did you catch on to what im saying?

it's simple, thats it.
