Did you cut off your rear speaker wires and joined it through to the converter? if you did, then rewire it back to the rear speakers and just 'tap' in the line converter with the rear speakers. you dont need to disconnect the rear speakers or any speakers whatsoever. the conveter will still work even if you just 'tap' in it. as for the remote wire, the only place u can get ignition is behind the headunit or the ignition barrel. my advice, find the ignition wire in the back of the head unit and connect it through there.. i did all my wiring behind the head unit, so all i needed to do after that was run the rca and remote wire to where the amp is located. lets not forget about the +ive wire... lol one more thing, make sure that you have got the right speaker wires. otherwise there will be no sound. heres a link with the wiring diagrams behind your head unit http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/Toyota-Wiring.pdf Andrew,
