Installing a Sub/amp in a Bose 5th gen, needing additional guidance.

Installing a Sub/amp in a Bose 5th gen, needing additional guidance.
After searching and building a game plan in my head. I wanted to get some feedback from others who have installed a sub.
Method: I plan to tap into the low line outputs from the factory bose setup
First question:
Should I tap in to the sub input leads? (see pic)
![](http://forums.maxima.org/picture.php?albumid=1521&pictureid=28775)
or should I tap into thee H/U?
Also, is the signal received sufficient to feed into a crossover?
I Currently have two amps and a sub.
Amps:
Coustic 241SE (240w rms)
and
Eclipse 3640 4/3/2 CH amp
60x4 rms or 105 x 2 @ 2 Ohms rms
Sub: Diamond Audio Cm308D2 (8" DVC @ 2OHM)
If I run no crossover I'll need to use the Eclipse amp bridged, as the built in crossover in the coustic no longer filters (full range only)
If I purchase a crossover I am considering using the 4 ch for a 4 pack and the coustic for the sub
Thanks for input

All stock currently,
I'm wanting to keep stock mids/highs for now and install the sub and maybe some 6x9's (the proposed 4pk option) custom fitted in rear deck. My sub will be in a seal enclosure .62 cuft build to spec.

Don't get 6x9's. Don't cut your rear deck. Music is produced and reproduced in a circular fashion. (think drums, trombone, etc..all circular output). If you need more 'bump' from your 6.5's, then upgrade to 8's in the doors. It's doable.
