(running 2 amps), how to chage the LEDs in the A/c unit, several other thingys, nothing major, just quick tips and see if i can come up with something in the way. Plus, i dont have a thread, felt like starting one....

ok. Time to explain my stereo system.. again, this is how i did it, other people can do it different. So here is what i did. Clarifying, i wanted OEM look. Dont care for aftermarket radio as i spent nearly 200 bucks on the cd changer.....

A while back i got ahold of a 2002 camry 6 disc. It uses an amplifier, so i decided to get it on ebay. Little did i know that it was a 20 pin; which is used in 2002 and up . Our premium system is a 15 pin plug. So i decided to work on it. 6 disc changers with 15 plug are difficult to find, so i kept it.



so i decided to do homework, and with the help of some of the guys here and the following diagrams





i created the mixed harness. 15 plug on one side and 20 on the other. Simply by joining the wires with the same functions.... However if you look at it, it has a rca output and a blue wire... Yes.... What i did was to connect the rca from the rear speaker output, (if i drew power, i wont miss having the rear speakers sound softer). And the blue, simply for an amp remote.... SO YES, i will be using the OEM amp and a second amp for my subwoofers.....



by the way, recently i swaped my old oem amp with a new one, 99 +. Sounds better...



then again, another inconvenience... the output from the radios are line level.. YESS, but are not ideal for subwoofer frequency. i solved this by using a Clarion EQ with Sbuwoofer output. And the results are wonderful.



So whats the special part. Well I wanted to have the ability to turn my subs on demand. A switch!!!!



if you look at the pics, for the switch, i used shrink heat tubing, to prevent shorts...



i plan on using the switch near the radio under the gauges....

So there you have it. Im running two amps. OEM and a Jensen to power two 10 inch woofers...

next i will go about details of wiring the amp
