Subwoofer options.

I bought a 6 pack of wire taps, got the deck out and tapped the rear left and right speakers in the immediate few inches of wire coming out of the deck. The only other thing that I needed that wasn't in the box of the Pioneer TW-X120A was a micro fuse "add a circuit" (happy to take pics of how I installed that in the fuse box too) and a 1.5 metre Rca male to female extension.

All the cables are run under interior paneling (mostly centre console under the armrest) and a pic here shows the only part of exposed cable. I put the little controller for it in the glovebox, had to reverse phase or bass was non existent (glad they include such an easy way to reverse it), and I have it set on maximum gain.

All in all it's very impressive when you consider the footprint, it's about the size of a 10" tablet but obviously thicker, the placement I've chosen is great to not put too much bass under someones butt (plus foot air air vents prevent a perfect under seat install). Sure it's no 12" in a box but as I said, it's well decent.

Feel free to ask Q's about the install.
Hi I'm new here . Did you tap the rear left and right speakers from the back of the deck? What did you use for the remote signal?
