You are going to have to tap meaning cut the wires going to the sub and wire them to the input of your re-q than run power wire to the re-q than finally wire your amp and sub like normal. If you only have the base system and not bose you can tap into the wires coming out of your head unit that go to the speakers in your doors and use them as the input signal to the re-q.

If your asking the questions you are I would have someone with experience do it for you.

I have two friends that know how to put in amps and did it to their cars but they really dont want to work on a brand new car. Im porbably gunna have one of them help me out.

ok i saw some wire taps on crutchfield.

Posi-Products™ Wire Connector Kit 6 tap connectors for 12- to 18-gauge wires — tap into wires without cutting or stripping at Crutchfield.com

This should be good enough. right? I saw the shop tap into the speaker wires on my altima but they tapped into the rear. Your saying that i tap into the positive and negative for the subwoofer. I never really looked at subwoofer for the bose system i know its in a case in the spare would i have to open it up?

Also i dont understand how to get power to the mtx re-q. I understand it has a yellow 12volt constant and a red 12volt and a ground. The ground i could ground the same place i ground the amp. BUt do i connect the red 12 volt to the power wire coming back to the amp, and if so what do i do with the 12 volt constant?

Is there a specific place everyone uses to ground there wires in the z?
sorry for all the questions. Just really think i could do this but need some input.

thanks
