Aftermarket sub and amp with stock radio??

Amen to that brother. We may have some conflicting opinions elsewhere but when it comes to car audio we always know best. That's what makes the world go around.

Pill your cup holders out and there is a harness down by the floor board that has 4 wires in it. These for wires are the sub wires. They will be blue and blue/white and green and green/white use one of the two sets to splice the loc to. I think I usually use the green and green/white combo. It doesn't really matter which two you use as long as they are to the same voice coil. This way your output to the amp is crossed over already so nothing more than 80hz gets to the amp. I've done many trucks this way.

thanks for the info lo-lyf,never knew those wires were there.This will help me seeing how i do not want to give up my factory radio.I think i will coil up about 4' under the cup holder incase i go with a aftermarket radio later on,then i will have enuf rca to reach that radio.

You are welcome. Good plan on leaving some slack, that's how the pros do it. Also, I was told by my old boss(the true mobile electronics guru) to leave the factory sub plugged in. It will not cause any cancellation by leaving it connected and will ensure that you don't burn up the Bose amp. You don't want an amp running nothing.
