[32VQUATTRO]

the relay being triggerd is for the bose amps. Turns on with the radio. You 
dont need to connect to that wire for your application.

>> Hey all!

>> So, I had a question, purely hypothetical of course *(snicker)* but say

>> anyone
>> have the colors of the wires and what they do?
>>
>> I'm redoing my system and wiring the speakers myself, so I won't be using
>> the stock speaker wiring, which I notice is a different connector for the
>> rears, and I removed most of the rear speaker stuff.
>>
>> What I in particular need is Power, Illumination, ignition soucre (was

>>
>> So, if they aren't all there, what would be a good option to cut into?

>>
>> Oh, by the way, wiring it in shouldn't be too tough as there is no seats,

>>
>> Oh, also, once again, by the way, i'm running a 4-ch 400w amp out of the
>> trunk, so I need a remote turn on lead as well.  Never done one before,
>> but
>> it looks like you make a wire from the radio harness to the amp, and
>> that's
>> it?  Sounds easy enough.
>>
>> Ok, Thanks again all!
