I ended up utilzing the factory amp and my external amp. The stereo is wired to the factory amp to allow all 7 other speakers to work while the external amp is wired (of course) to handle the two 12s. I prewired it for additional amps from the stereo but I probably won't use them as it gets pretty loud. Once I replace the speakers in my box (and maybe even the box) I'll decide what to do for the amp, either get another mono amp or purchase a 2 channel amp.

But as far as it sounds now, it's doing what I want it to do.

I forgot to say that I found this vehicle has 9 speakers total. It has factory components in the front doors. It really sounds good for now but I need to either get a new box or redo the connection from the amp to the box. Sometimes the wires fall out hehe.

Cool, just make a better connection..wires falling out sux..lol

How did you interface the factory amp? Did it use a standard harness with remote on to it, of was any kind of interface or adaptor needed? Jus curious.

Thanks

I used the factory amp by connecting the remote from the deck to the remote on the wire harness, just the standard harness. No other adapter was necessary. I was going to get a amp bypass harness but not now, since all of the speakers are working, even the 8 inch sub that I don't even care about heh. The reason I wanted a new box is because the box I have now is a bandpass box and I think I want to go with a regular ported box.

That's something I need to figure out though...
