Re: Subwoofer <clarification, long>



	Being a former installer.... My sugestion would be first of all 
find out the name of the Amplifer, model number, etc. This will allow you 
to get some specs about its power output and the different wiring 
configurations. It may be possible that the  Amplifer which is powering 
the speakers in the rear deck can be run in a 3 channel mode. this would 
allow you to use the current Amp and speakers setup plus add the 
subwoofer. Also something to take into consideration (and if I am getting 
over your head please let me know and I will explain) you do not want to 
lower the resistance or ohm load to a level in wich the amp cannot 
handle. If you can find out about the amp I might be able to tell you 
more about it.. 
	One question, you said the system was pro-installed. does the 
radio still come on without the ignition on? While I wa working for a 
retail store B*** B**, We had to wire an ignition lead for all cars that 
did not have one.. Just curious, I'll bet with someof the equipment you 
mentioned the system was installed at a stereo shop..
