I have one with mine, basically the amps normally take a low input, you can get something which you wire inline with the rear speakers on their way to the amp (if you take the feed from the rear speakers) which converts the high feed from the normal hu to low.. You can buy the thing from halfords, like a fiver I think, I have one on mine.. Hope that makes sense..

Thanks lad,

Do you lose the rear speakers? Ie is it either or?

[joeishmather]

Nope just splice off the wires, in otherwords the wire goes to the rear speakers but also you tap into it and that goes to the amp... Like a t piece ( if you were plumbing)lol

Yea get you.

Next question at the rear of the head unit what colour wires need to be spliced, which colour go to either of the rear speaker?

Yeah no problem I can sort it for you!
Is it a 3 or 5 door?
And in return recon you can activate my cruise control?

One way to tell would be to play music clip some wires n see what happens... Perhaps not the best way but it is one way to find out, I'll have to check my note book thing when I'm home for the wire diagram..
