a simple way to install subs without taking out the head unit...
basicly you connect
power to the batter.
ground to a non painted bolt to car frame
remote blue wire to the fuse box on drivers side(you connect it to the acc fuse (adapter cost like 3$ which adds another fuse and wires off)
then you can get the signals from the 2 rear speakers already located on the top of the trunk, its a simple positive to positive negative to negative wiring for each sub
easy as pie=) at least that's the way i did mine wen i first got the car, just requires a good adjustment of the amp or add additional equipment such as equalizer....
hope that clears up any confusion to the way i did mine...

Had my system for three months now.... Love it.
It was a breeze to install... Helps with a box designed for your ride. Just follow the guide posted above and you won't have a chance of screwing up. Saved me $100 from Worstbuy.
Ask any install questions in this thread... PLEASE don't start another one :D
