Try hooking up the remote turn on on the radio(blue/white) to the blue amp turn on on the hrns. _____________________________ http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2395420 (in reply to ionlygot6) Post #: 2

But if you have factory amps, you have to buy a bypass plug for it or you won't get any sound from new deck. You can't use an amp to power another amp. IE your stereo is prob rated 50-200 watts. Best to call a car stereo shop and ask them. They will be able to tell you from their experiences. (in reply to ionlygot6) Post #: 9
