That ebay deal isn't bad at all. This is what I ran on the install in my wife's xB...

It probably would have been worth the difference in cost to get the kit off of ebay. Getting the type of splices I wanted was the biggest hassle. With the ebay kit you don't have to deal with that. I also spliced the LOC in right after the stock head unit. It is all hidden up in the dash.

I would highly recommend getting one of these to go along with the install if you are only adding a subwoofer. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3792.html You just plug it into your RCAs in line between the head unit and the amp. Tune your amp with the Bass Control turned all the way up. Then if you ever need to reduce your bass it is as easy as turning the little ****. A great investment for only $13.

 

+1 for bass ****.

I run the subplug2 from norcalscions, and it's great. includes a remote turn on as well as RCAs

 

ok 1 more question...can i run 2 amps with either one of theese?

 

the best loc is the PAC,here is one

yes you can run 2 amps with this

 

but doesn't it require wire work? the subplug 2 from norcalscions is plug and play.

 

Id rather pull the radio to get the LOC location and be able to tap the remote there too

 

pull the radio as in get a new HU? y, might be nice, but if ur on a budget...

if you mean pull the radio out to put the LOC in the back of the HU, yeah, that's definitely required

 

very simple stuff but cheaper and keeps it dead quiet

 

thanks for the rplys!

 

is there a big difference on the one from ebay for 40+ or any high to low converter? is there something special about the one from ebay? thanks

 

well, the one on ebay was plug and play, and specifically built for our cars... I had purchased two others, in addition to a scoche TAO2, and realized I'd be so much better off with the one from ebay

 

so its worth spending the extra 20some? also i have a 4ch amp and want to bridge it. should i get the one for 4ch or can i just buy a splice for the rca's?

again thanks

 

it's up to you, I'd buy his 'full enchilada' one, but that's just me. I had a great experience with that seller/product, and it continues to perform well.

 

I had a hi low converter in mine for a minute. got it at best buy for 35 chips.

 

thanks for the props !!! i am glad you enjoy it and it is working well .. i think it is the best solution for the stock system .. it is plug -n-play .. well worth the price .. there is no wires to cut and or need for an installer .. easy -do it yourself .... thanks"CHERRYBOX "

 

you gots it g-nizzle!

subplug issa ish
