in the passenger footbwell (assuming you have an si..) Just make sure you don't drill through where the wires are, its not very busy in that area anyway so you should be alright, thats what I did with my two. |

The best think to do is to run it around the back of the engine bay to the big grommet behind the header tank :  Its hidden most of the way, but basically the top left is where it enters the car, it will drop into the drivers foot well from there and the rest is history. |

Same chassis really so most things will be in the same place. |

Was the Si's Grommit on the passenger side? I can't believe I never used it before if it was, |

is the sub not working or the radio if its the sub i guess you have power from the radio to the remote switch on the amp . nomal you have the red from the battey then the eath nomal short from the body make shure you clean the body up no paint or rust then you have the remote on the radio nomal a blue wire which switch the amp on this nomal under a amp if this not working then wire it up to the ignition switch |

Yeah. The amp has to has the REM wire plugged into it, and into the back of the headunit. It's usually a blue wire, that you either plug into, or strip down and attach that to a blue and white wire at the headunit. that turns the amp on! so make sure that's all connected as well. check over fuses, make sure everything is attached properly, grounded, so on. all wires connecting from amp to speakers are on properly, wired properly. so forth. it's a no brainer really!

 that little blue wire tells the amp to turn on, when the headunit comes on otherwise, your amp is either always on, or always off. lol the amount of times i've pulled my stereo equipment apart! lool could do it all blindfolded now. but im selling it all shortly. wanna get some moneys in

yes i had problems like this not shure what fixed it but i had other problems too so sorting them out may also fix this problem . I would start by cleaning all the earths up first then make shure connect on battry are clean and also if that did not work is the radio new i aslo fitted a new radio which had a power choke If avoidable, don't wind up the excess also make sure the head unit has a power supply choke. http://www.nexxia.co.uk/products.asp?ca ... ar%20Audio |
