IMPORTANT:
Before you make any connections, disconnect the negative battery
terminal from the battery. This will reduce the chance of electrical damage to the
vehicle.
Your new amplifier produces quite a bit more power than the original amplifier. As a
result, the original amplifier power and ground wires simply aren't large enough to
provide the new amplifier enough power. So, we'll attach the new, included power
connections in locations that differ slightly from the original amplifier's connections.
Additionally, we have to have a way to tell our new amplifier to turn on. The original
amplifier gets a signal from the vehicle's head unit via a small wire. Since this wire
doesn't provide the amplifier power, it is also sufficient for our new amplifier, so we will
reuse this connection.

new amplifier
We'll use any factory ground location in the trunk area where an existing 10mm bolt
can be found. These photos show a couple of different factory ground bolts:
