I have a 99 Maxima SE with a Bose headunit. I would like to hookup two 10" Infinity subs, but I am not sure what the outs are and what cords I will need. Can anyone help me, plus I will need directions about getting the head-unit removed.

 

Start reading the stickies. You need a standard amp wiring kit that comes with RCA's (or separate RCA's) and an extra set of 6 inch cheapy RCA's (female) that you will chop.

 

Get a Haynes or Chilton manual for $20-ish. They helped me ALOT when I did my system install. Note that the Chilton only goes to '98, but the 99 is basically the same. (I have the Haynes)

 

Just read the stickies, no need to buy the manual unless there's other work you plan to do.

 

sry for jacking the thread..but i cant create any. i was just wondering if i could use the red power wire in the rear speaker of a bose system as the amp turn on wire.

 

Read the stickies. Wire colors are there.

 

i know what the wire colors are.. i looked it up in the Haynes manual...but what im asking is if i could use the power wire for the bose rear speaker as a turn on wire for my aftermarket amp.

 

Use the Bose turn on wire instead.

 

is that the only option? because i didnt really want to take out the headunit. im kinda lazy and i figured that the power wire in the rear would give the 12v power that the amp needed. it would be alot more work to run a new wire from the head unit to the trunk. but i will use the bose turn on if the rear speaker power wire is unsuitable

 

Before you use it, test it to see if its constant or switched. If its constant and you use it for a remote turn on, then your amp will always be on, which will drain your battery.

How far are you from Tampa/Gainesville? Theres an org member out there that I highly recommend to help you with your install.

And to add, taking out the HU is really not that hard or time consuming.

 

tampas about 3 hours away and gainsville is way too far. plus im still young, 17, and under parental watch...so i doubt i would be able to drive across the state to see a stranger. and yea ill test it first...

 

Alright, I don't know the geography of FL...

Let us know what your findings are. I know that behind the radio, remote turn on is white/green. It may be the same at the amp.

 

Thank you sir
