Glad to see that someone actually used my suggestion about the bic pen taped to the wire. I thought I would for sure get flamed for that. Tried a coat hanger first but it didn't work to well.
There's been also some talk at this link.

Yeah get these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1243956066
I just bought one in a 12". One is all I need. The sub is an a/d/s 310rs.2 (10") These have the best SQ, and can get loud if needed. They are 4 ohm Dual voice coil. Do you want SQ or SPL?

http://www.acura-cl.com/ubb/Archives...-1-006254.html . I used a BIC pen taped to the end of the 8 gauge power cable to get through the rubber grommet at the engine firewall. going through the carpet on the floor right infront of the rear seat, i used a hanger to fish the wire through!! the mtx amp i purchased has some sort of a sensor in the speaker line inputs. once it detects a signal, it turns the amp on. so, i didn't have to access the remote turn on lead of the bose amp. i also tapped into the rear speaker wires right before the speakers themselves and it sounds just fine.
