Default Need a Wire!!!!

Guys, I'm installing an aftermarket amp to power 2 10" Kicker Pro Comp subs. I have it completed except for the remote turn on wire. I need to find a switched ignition 12 volt source. I haven't had any luck as of yet, any body that has done some audio work want to lend a hand? I need to find this wire so I can enjoy some tunes again. Please help!!!!

if the have the amp on the rear deck unplug the connect facing towards the outside of the trunk "connector closest to you if your behind the car" and its the small gauge pink wire. I'll put a picture up in a minute. If you don't have the amp then i can't help you.


Car domain resized my image and forgot that text woudln't be readable anyways the blue wire is my 12 volt to the amp just ignore it its wired into the small gauge pink/purple wire.


Also i'm curious as to which wires you used as the signal source. This question applys to anyone who's wired there own stuff.

Thanks I found the pink wire. I was not waiting for the lights to go off when checking for a switched source. After stopping and thinking about it I realized the power would go off after the lights went out. Thanks for the help!!!!

for the signal source I used the white and blue wires that are on the 6x9's which I belive feed the tweeters.

Our headunit has a subwoofer source sent to the amp might get better quality instead of using the rear speakers source.
