Factory HU - Remote amp hookup

[Red 07 Taco]

I am adding an MB Quart Pab4100 amp to my factory 6 disk HU and my question is what would be the best way to hook up the remote amp power wire? Is there a wire in the factory harness I could splice into, like a power antenna wire? What color is it? Anyone got pictures of their successful install?

well problem with the power antenna wire is that it will turn off the amp when you switch to CD. If the system doesn't have a factory amp installed, you can allways wire to the accessory wire. This will turn the amp on and off with the car. Other option would be a current sensing devince that is installed inline with the RCAs. When it detects a signle, it throws a relay to turn on the amp.

ya, try splicing into the acc wire. wire taps make that very easy. wut i used to do is include a flip switch along the wire. hope that helps
