a) you need a line output converter.
b) you can hardwire the remote wire to the positive battery terminal, and have a toggle switch that will shut the amp on and off.
c) if you honestly dont know how to route power wire thru a car or how/where to ground i dont think its a good idea to be install the equipment

I would remove the dash panel and wire it to the back of the deck. its super easy(4 bolts) PM me if you need help. I just did an 05 Maxima the other day.

the Amp Trigger Wire is Green/White in the 05 maxima.



and if for whatever reason you cant find that wire you can safely wire it to the Accessory Switched Wire.Its located behind the deck and its a Violet wire.use a 1 amp inline fuse on the wire behind the deck.the amp will turn on when your deck turns on.
Good luck.


Jalat has the right idea.

I would advise you to get a professional to do it if your seriously unsure how to wire the power wires.

hey thanks for the advice finaly .... lol its not that im not sure how to ground or run the pwr wire.... Theres always more than one way to get from the battery to the trunk and i was just wondering what you guys have done if theres a perfect way to get into the trunk and thats the easiest routh to go under the car i'll do that or if i need to undo one bolt and i'll c a perfect place to get through the fire wall i'll do that.... I just didnt know if anyone had a tip.....And the same with the ground.... I just was trying to save myself some time instead of having to undo the trunk and what not to try and find ways to get my wires back there....

On the passenger side of the firewall there's a group of wires going into the cabin of the car.They go through a large rubber grommet. run your power wire through that. run the wire under all the panels on the passenger side all the way to the trunk. Run any speaker or rca wires down the opposite side of the car away from any other powers wires.

a good ground spot would be under the rear seat somewhere on a factory bolt or drill your own. grind away any paint around the connection to the body.


lol if you need pictures I can take some tomorrow.



hope this helps.
