Default remote wire for the speed 3 w/ bose

Hey guys, I'm adding an amp and sub for the 3. I've searched but havent found quite what I'm looking for. I'd like to know the color of the factory remote wire that goes into the factory amp.

Some people have ran a seperate circuit to a switch or just tapped into an accesories wire by the fuse box, however, I'd like to utilize the actual remote wire the factory sub uses so that when the stereo goes off, so does the aftermarketamp.

Thanks in advance

Sean

So you want to use the stock wiring for your after market equipment? I'm not following...

I just want to tap into the factory remote wire that tells the amp to turn on when you turn the key on. The power wire and ground wire are both aftermarket.

To run remote wire go to passanger side floor, pull off panel under glove box. unhook fuse box and drop it down....tap into 7.5v fuse for radio will allow amp to turn on when radio turn on. To run aftermarket amp u can tap into rear door speakers (white with pink stripe and second wire is grey). If need more info email me. Just hooked up 15 inch kicker last night.....

Thank you redlinern. I will do that. I already have the rca converter going to the factory sub wire for the rca signal.I assume that is what you meant when you said to tap into the rear door speaker.
