Ah ok understood, thanks.

One more thing I forgot to add. I also have a Crossover unit aswell, that needs a Remote.
Would it be safe to also brigde that line in with the other 2 amp remots aswell, and run one wire to the deck. Or should I do the crossover unit seperate.

try it and see if it works, but like I said, for more than 2 amps, like 2 amps, and a xo, I'd run a relay off the remote wire... http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/onli...urn-relay.html

ok, so I should have worded it differently, but that's the end result, as the low level remote tun on lead and a ground, trips the coil in the relay...

SQ civic.
I am still learning about car audio, so about that relay link you showed me.
I really don't understand it. Is it like a unit you can buy, or can you make it ?
Just a bit of clairafication would help.
Thanks.

any SPDT, (single pole double Throw) 12v relay will work. 3-4 bucks at canadiantire, or radioshack.
