Hi, guys!
Hope everyone’s well. I’ve recently brought a caddy (2007) (just for a work van). Radio needs abit of an update. Therefore I’ve decided to upgrade and add a potential subwoofer. Now I’m very green at all this and was looking for some pointers so that I don’t destroy anything!
Radio:
On the aftermarket speaker harness, it comes with an orange wire (illumination) and a red wire (ignition) both free with a connectors on the end of them (pic). Do these have a specific place or are the subject to requirements?
Subwoofer:
First question is can I splice on the subs system remote control to the radios one? (The radio has a free cable that I could join on to) (pic 3)
Now power chord, from the sub it has two 18 awg chords merged into one, will i have to connect a lower gauge wire to pick up the slack and join that on to the battery?
Sorry to write a mini novel but I will definitely appreciate any thoughts and tips to these overcome these issues!
Cheers!
P.s sorry about shoddy photos, phone’s camera is filled up with sawdust.
Specs:
Caddy 2007
Aftermarket radio: pioneer DMH-A240BT
Subwoofer: kenwood ksc-sw11
