Help Me Please

i have an 05 civic ex sedan i'm trying to find out what i can run my remote wire to. i don't want to run it to the head unit since i don't have to go back there for anything else since i have a stock head unit i also have the converter box i'm gonna jump them to the rear speakers and mount the box on my sub box.

run it to the fuse box with a toggle switch. that way you can turn off you subs if you want.

the fuse box right under the steering wheel. connect it to the head unit fuse. no, you dont need to use a switch.

i only suggested the switch in case you wanted to turn off your subs for one reason or another. i turn mine off sometimes when i don't feel like lots of bass. you don't have to have it.

yeah, you can just fray the wire and jam it in there... just remember that if sometime in the future your subs just stop for seeminly no reason, that is 90% probably the reason

Hope you didnt hook that to a constant fuse, you could burn up your amp if you did.
