I have a trailblazer and i noticed that you guys are having trouble finding the remote wire... this is what to do...first pull up the seat (drivers side.. locate the fuse box)

Remote wire for 03 Trailblazer w/ pics -- posted image.

next take the cover off... locate fuse #47...

put the Remote wire in with fuse #47 and your amp will turn off and on with your car. It is the only source that I could find in the Trailblazer. Lots of installers are using this trick too... Good Luck...

**i do not take responsibility for what you do to your vehicle this is only a guide.

Hope this helps!

Finished Product.

I don't like the idea of "tapping a fuse". It is just as easy to go to the ignition harness.

Its all on the same wire... just at a different place. Plus, this is alot easier than ripping apart your dash/steering column.

If there is a pink wire behind the radio like on tahoes I think you can use that one. May want to test it first.

I'm not much of a fan of fuse taps, but cool tip I guess always nice to have options.

By the way I hope lots of installers aren't using this trick. Clean that thing up! Later,

BTW why not just use a module like DEI's 55000 ( many other comapnies make them also) that take a signal off a speaker wire and give you a 12V turn on voltage, you can wire it right at the back of the radio, takes 3-4 minutes and bingo, you're done with a proper professional hookup....... that way the amp remotes on and off properly, with the power switch of the radio, not the ignition.....
