If you have an aftermarket deck, you connect the blue (remote wire) to the amp where it says REM + or remote. If stock deck, tap into the ACC power (+12 when acc is turned on) and run the wire to the amp. You use a test light or volt meter to find out the acc.

But I see that you are asking where its at on the amp and I dont see why its hidden, so why dont you say what kind of amp it is. Since this seems to be an issue I wouldnt reccomend you trying to install the amp yourself.

Just follow through with bucktussa's advice.

Look for the a blue wire with a label that saids (REM) it should be there. But yeah let us know if you can't find it.!

it might not have a remote wire for the amp. Look for what they said, if not, look for a power antenna wire. that works too.

Most likely no remote out on a stock head. You would run the remote turn-on wire from the amp to a 12 volt switched wire under the dash, as bucktussa referred to. That will turn the amp on when the car is on. Have you figured how to get the music signal from the head unit to the amp?

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
