Eclipse install

I have pretty decent experience when it comes to installign headunits. I am purchasing this http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....9&page=1&pp=30 on monday and would like to know how to ground the wire so that the screen stays open while driving. also i have 3 amps. 2 mono amps for my subs and one interior amp. which plugs should be used for the 2 sub amps because there is only one sub input on the back of the unit. thank you for any help that is given!!!

On some amps you have the abililty to use one input (only one RCA needed to get full output), you may be able to do this, that is if the unit has 1 pair of sub outputs.

Does it really have only one RCA output, and not a pair?

Others also have the ability to pass the signal down stream through output RCA's. If your amp does both then your set . If not just use a splitter.

The screen should stay open, otherwise you can't see track/radio info. The only thing is that if you are watching a movie, I think that it will not allow you to see it(the screen will remain out).
