2014 civic ex sedan Sub/amp install?

Hey everyone.
I have a 2014 civic ex with the stock touchscreen head unit. I just upgraded from my 2002 civic lx with a Jvc unit, i don't remember which one. I had my amp and sub hooked up in there and now I want to move that over to my new civic. Im keeping my stock touch screen head unit in and I can't seem to figure it out. What adapter do i need to hook up my left and right Sub RCA cables and the remote power switch. can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

If your amp doesn't have high level inputs (speaker in) then you need a high to low adapter like this... Scosche LOC80 adapter

For remote turn on, just run the remote lead to a fused acc in the fuse box that is activated by the key. Stereo/lighter/ACC/ anything like that.

Thanks for that! How would I wire the adapter into my head unit?

You don't. It's wired off of the speaker leads.
