I did a 2013 Jeep Wrangler with a 5 channel amp replacing his factory sub. He wants antoher sub in the box for better bass but has a switch so when he needs the trunk space he can switch back to the factory sub. What kind of switch can I use for 300 watts of power going to the sub from the 5 channel? Which kind fo switch can I use? Thanks again guys.

You need a Double Pole Double Throw On-On switch rated at 10 amps.

With the switch connections facing you, wire the amp positive wire to the Middle terminal of the left row. Connect the amp Negative wire to the center connection of the Right row. Connect the factory woofer to the 2 top connections. Connect the Box to the 2 bottom connections.
Positive wires all on the left row and negative wires all on the right.

Okay. So I can obviously go with persay something that is of a higher amperage and I cant use 120V ones because they are used for homes. Right? I know dumb questions, but I want to make sure.
