Default Suggestions for audio and 12V power to trunk

Any suggestions on where to run the 12V battery power cable to the trunk for a power amp.

Also wondering if there is a way to tap into the pe-amp outputs for R and L rear speakers and subwoofer.

Where are the amplifiers for the Bose system in the V anyway?

Thanks.

The BOSE system does not supply line level outputs.

You will need amplifiers that support a speaker level input.

PM your email address and I can send pics of where I spliced into the harness.

As for amplifier power, you can tap into the 12 volt supply going to the fuseboxes under the rear seat.

Default Example of a Good Sound System

2- 12's jl audio
1- jl audio 500/1 amp
1- bass **** to control the gain on the amp works well.
I included some pictures, by the way my car is for sale.
It is listed as CTS-V Supercharged For Sale.
