This has been covered MANY times
1. Pull down the top trunk liner when you're in the trunk
2. Look up under there and you'll see a big hole in the middle with the sub nearly sticking out; there will be a plug connecting to the sub
3. Unhook that plug and that's your (Post-amp) Subwoofer (-) and (+) wires
4. Wire that into a Line-Out Convertor (LOC), which will allow you to run speaker wire into it and use RCA's from the LOC into your amp
5. Wire up the amp to the speaker; Do the ground/power/remote
DONE
Another route....
Our factory system has what's called a balanced/differential signal. It helps noise cancellation but it's a bitch to work with in a car. You can bypass step 3 and 4 if you find an amp that will accept a balanced signal. Here's a few that do
Only some of these amps..not their entire line
JL Slash and HD
Soundstream
Hifonics
TRU
Audison
Zapco REF
Precision Power

You don't really need a balanced signal amp to run a sub. You will cross all of the noise out of the signal anyway. A basic LOC will not convert balanced to regular anyway.
