Mark's advice is spot on, as usual. My sub is relatively low powered, as it is small and mounted under the driver seat. I just connected to the positive and negative connections on the 12V outlet and ran the wires to the sub under the seat. I didn't want to mess with running power from the battery. It is so much easier to use the 12V outlet.A question for the installers who tapped the 12V power at the rear outlet: where did you connect the negative power wire from the aftermarket amp/sub? Did you tap the negative wire on the car's 12V outlet? Connect the negative amp power wire a ground point on the car frame? Something else?
I've installed many systems in previous cars, but always ran power from the car battery and grounded to the frame. This is new territory for me. Thanks!
