I tapped into the low level lines (RCA's) that supply the factory BOSE amp in the trunk. I built a fiberglass box to fit in the cubby hole. Here's a bad pic:

you can just tap into those, no problem? can you tap into the amps power cable too, or do you have to run a separate line to the battery? you don't happen to have an extra one of those custom boxes lyin around, do ya?? ,

Yeah you can tap into them no problem. You can't tap into the power wire though, it's tiny. I just ran my own from the battry. I could sell you my sub box if you want. It's not all that great, since it was my first fiberglass experiment. It gets the job done though.

Ha, yeah blackb5 that was the day before I did my timing belt and water pump, so I was prepared.

I have a US Amps 300 watt sub with an Alpine 10". It's adequate for rock etc.
i'm confused, is it a 10" or a 12"? and did you mean 300 watt amp? i was thinking maybe a 5-600 watt amp. i like beats, alot, but i don't want to have to get a capacitator. and i DEFINITELY don't want my trunk to be rattling.
