sup guys, look i have a 10" Dual subwoofer i already got it hook up, but inside the box there's a, they call it, IllumiNite lighting that can be wire to a 12v source. i read the instructions they said donnot hook it up directly to battery as that will drain your battery so....

the back of the sub already have a "ON" and "OFF" switch for the IllumiNite

how do you hook it up?
and what kind of wire do you use?

hEElp!!

It's usually not the same wire actually. There should be two blue wires back there one will be for the antennae [which only comes on with AM/FM radio - you wouldn't want to do this]. The blue wire with white stripe is your remaote which is already run to your amp so why not use that? One thing comes to mind - if the lights aren't shielded well you might catch some signal noise which would be bad - but try it first. If that doesn't work there should be an illumination [Orange IIRC?] wire back there that will turn the subs neons on when you turn at least the first click on your headlight stalk wink.gif

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

so you just connect the positive to the blue (remote wire), which also connects to the deck and the amplifier, right?

alright yea, so you got the blue wire from your amplifier to your deck, and you just connect the illumiNte wire with it?
