[jaxx]

[Hou]

good man that will make things easier for him i hope!

[breezer]

So what addition stuff do i need?

I have the amp, 6m long speaker wire, those two wires....

[Hou]

jaxx remote power for the amp?

[jaxx]

jaxx remote power for the amp?

yeah as for that i think your gonna need to either wire up a manual remote lead for the amps or use a signal produced by the ignition to turn on the amps as the yaris unit........as far as i know doesnt have a remote out???

can someone tell me if the toyota sub is amped........

[breezer]

Sorry bout this guys!!! I just dont know anything about this or what uz r sayin, my mate sorta knows how to wire it up, im just gathering more information! And need to find out what else i will need to buy, so he can hav a crack at doing it!

Coz lookin at the diagram, i need wire to hook upto the Battery (no idea what type of wire, red & black? ) i need a fuse what type of fuse and i need a ground wire (wheres that get wired too?).

If anyone can type a list of what i need, then il go buy em, print this off and give it to my mate!!! :group-cuddles:

[jaxx]

1 red power lead at least at 8awg (gauge) wire with a fuse within 6icnhes of the Battery that is the same rating as the amps built in fuse

1 black ground lead with a ring terminal to mounted on the cars bodywork

1 remote lead (normal wire will do) to switch the amp on (gotta sort some sort of source for this)

speaker cable to extend the headunits original outputs down to the boot.

[breezer]

Jesus! Lol!!

Is this what usually comes with an amp wiring kit?

[breezer]

Ignore that last comment bout wiring kit!!!!!!!!!!

Pardon my french.....

****** ****** ****** ******! (HAHA wnt show up)

Does the red power lead come with a fuse, or do i havta buy a fuse (if so what type of fuse)

Will this all be at Halfords?

[jaxx]

sort of yes

but youll get an RCA cable instead

[jaxx]

a kit will come with a ready wired fuse.

otherwise you have to buy things all separate.

buy a kit it will make life easier

[breezer]

But i thought someone said i couldnt wire that upto my cd player?

:!Removed!: (((seriously considering blowing the car up))) :!Removed!:

[breezer]

Yeh! I cant use an amp kit coz i dont have the terminals! therefore gota use speaker wire and all that stuff!!

Will Halfords sell all the cables and stuff i need?

[jaxx]

ok so you cant use the RCA lead but an amp kit will still make the rest of it easier, plus you have an RCA if you upgrade your headunit in the future

[Hou]

does the head unit have a electric ariel out jaxx or is it not a universal toyota one more made for the yaris?

[breezer]

So i can use an amp wiring kit. What else would i need to buy to use in the RCA cables place? B)

[jaxx]

just some normal wire in place of the RCA

hou - as far as im aware there is no aerial output, but im wondering if it has some sort of remote lead for the optional sub you can get, but i dunno if its powered by its own amp or not?

[breezer]

ok! il buy the amp kit soon!

what do u mean "normal wire" whats it look like, whats it called?

[Hou]

think he means normal speaker wire!

Jaxx- it may be a little out of his league but couldnt he just connect it to the switched live of his ignition?

[jaxx]

........just normal speaker wire!..........

[jaxx]

Jaxx- it may be a little out of his league but couldnt he just connect it to the switched live of his ignition?

yes thats what i was refering to in an earlier post

[breezer]

Hey hey hey now! dont try and confuse me here, iv been confused all day (and that doesnt happen often) Hence me skiiving off college early coz a cudnt b assed

[Hou]

only thing is you would need someone who knows a little about the electrics to do it!You could just save and buy a new head unit??

[breezer]

Right! I have speaker wire, so all i need to do is buy the amp kit!! i have 520w amp, so an amp kit for a 600w one wud do wudnt it, coz thats all Halfords sell!!!

[jaxx]

yes that will be ok. where are you exactly?
