Default HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!

i just bought my amp kit and i'm already to hook up my system i have the 6 disc changer and a coverter box that i was gonna hook up to the rear speakers.

the problem i'm haveing is i'm trying to run my remote wire some where besides behind the head unit.

DOnt think your going to find much at the rear of the car. You really need to find an accesory wire at the column. I have seen people get lazy and tag the fuel pump wire and then a week or two later it draws too much current and burns the remote wire, the fuel pump wire and the fuel pump itself. A very expensive mistake for a short cut that isnt all the short in the first place

The radio one would be ok, but to be truthfull it is then going to draw amprage out of the fuse for the radio and the amp remote turn on which isnt much but some.

THe best way would be to T into the large accesory wire coming from the key cylender and slap like a lil 5 amp fuse in there. Espec since 7th gens are so easy to drop the driver side under dash.
