Hooking up an amp for mazda 3
 

Hey guys i just got a new amp and Bandpass Dual sub system. What are any good hints to keep this looking as stock as possible, besides the trunk, and hooking up the wires through the stereo. Thanks for your help!! :tank:

never mind i figured out the problem if anyone wants to know how please feel free to reply

Why don't you just share it with us?
:rolleyes:

lol ok but unless you know what you are doing dont attempt this cuz it could damage your car.
first off unless you want to get experts to do it your not going to be able to plug in your amp into the back of your stereo like you normally would. your going to have to buy some special equipment. you need an adapter of some sort, sorry but right now im not sure wut its called i just know u can get it at best buy, but what u need is an adapter that will convert the speaker wire into the rca plugin. But we will get to that step l8er. You will also need to get you some splicers at autozone or somewhere. first off, pop off the pillar where your seatbelt comes out. you should see a group of wires that connect to the back door. u need the splicer and the speaker wire, splice into (dont take my word on this i heard that sometimes they are a different color) i think the purple wire, but please test it first and make sure its the right wire. once u splice that u can run the wire through the popoff lining on the floor (u may have your own preference of hiding these wires) until u get to the trunk. (oh yeah remember to do this on BOTH sides of your car, on the left and right and REMEMBER WHICH SIDE IS WHICH.) now u connect the speaker wire to the adapter, plug in the RCA into the adapter and wala u can figure out the rest

i know this may be a vague description but i will get pics for ya l8er, im about to leave on a 5 day trip and dont have time to get this done now. so if u are still kinda not sure, just wait and I will get it on l8er
