Default I done it!! But the main thing is missing!!

Hi all,, i've done it!! lol no big deal, I just managed to wire up my power cable etc through the center console, under the carpet, and through the firewall... But one thing is missing...

I got no AUX OUT on my headunit... its a Kenwood KDC-W3037 ... On my previous car, I managed to connect the amp to the wires, but i dont have any idea of the setup or anything.... I have no output from the headunit......

also, where's the best place to put the amp and sub so that i can make maximum use of the boot... Where can i get an earth in the boot??? got power cap as well!!!!

Default No aux out

To connect an amp without aux out you could do it witha set of these.

Car Audio Direct - Celsus LC2 Adjustable Converter - Accessory

It's not the best solution but it works.

You could place the amp under the passenger seat or on the back of the rear seats.

use one of the seat bolts for earth (I am using the one by the pasanget seat belt)

your cap can go under the drivers seat, it is just more wiring
