in the trunk the amp has a remote wire you can tap into that, its colored yel/wht wire. also known as radio switched pwoer, use that as the turn on wire for your amp.

no thats the window antenna coil, the amp is on the passengers side area, bby the jack, you have to pull the carpet out on that side to see it.

well its the yellow with a white stripe, these should be the colors of wires:

white/yellow stripe (power to amp)
white(imput from radio)
orange(imput from radio)
red(imput from radio)
green(imput form radio)
yellow(imput from radio)
brown(imput from radio)
blue(imput from radio)
black(imput from radio)
light green(shielding)
yellow/white stripe(the one you need/ remote turn on wire)
black(ground)
red/green stripe (+ passengers speaker/tweeter)
brown/black stripe(- passengers speaker/tweeter)
blue/green stripe(+ drivers speaker/tweeter)
gray/black stripe(- drivers speaker/tweeter)
red/yellow stripe(+ rigth rear speaker)
brown/white stripe(- right rear speaker)
blue/yellow stripe(+ left rear speaker)
gray/white stripe(- left rear speaker)

if you unhook the connector and look straight at it, with the clip part at the top, in the upper left hand corner you should have the brown/blacc stripe wire, if you count that as 1 then count to 5 to the right thats the yellow/white stripe wire you need, it should be by itself, there should not be any wires in the two spaces on its left and right. hope you understand.
