10 pin in trunk

[00ls-sport]

i was reading the FAQ's over on llsoc, and it mentioned a ten pin connector for the amp on the audiophile equipped cars. supposedly it is present in non-equipped cars as well. can i just splice my 4 channel amp into that harness, or do i still have to have the amp installed separate? if so...i will need a line out converter, does that mean that wires have to be run from each speaker to the trunk?

it'll be better to install it seperately, you'll need a bigger power wire depending on how many watts your amp is. new ground, rcas, the line out converter should be spliced into your rear speakers, i wouldnt recommend splicing into the harness...

why is it always better to splice the loc to the rear speakers?

Check this thread out mostly the last post. If you are going to use the plug in the back I would suggest running new power and ground wires.
