Factory systems usually don't have axillary outputs, but you can wire it up in other ways. There is usually a grommet or 2 in the firewall that you can run your main power wire through... or you can drill a new hole.

I'm trying not to drill and heard there's a plug on the firewall behind the airfilter housing .
I pulled my rear seats as to find mount points and route speaker wire to my drivers seat.
That's where I'm installing my amp since I don't have a bluetooth box . So now I've pulled my front seats pretty much as far as I can without disconnecting the harnesses. Took a T-50 socket to remove the front seat mounting bolts. I've tapped into my Rockford Fosgate speaker inputs with a line out converter and will try to route the power cable through the firewall tomorrow.
I'm tired

I have a question though
I've tapped into my front and rear speakers for the line converter,but I'll need a switched on signal for the amp.Any ideas where this ACC signal is located? I've tested most wires and can't seem to find it.

Ok I've found the info
where's the fuse box?

• through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
• to audio unit terminal 7.

Or maybe get a signal off of terminal 9 on the big plug, I'll try that first

AFAIK, the on signal comes from the power antenna with most cars, blue with white stripe?

I dunno, maybe I'm wrong... :gotme:

well the audio converter has a blue/white wire for the remote turn on.
No way Nissan has anything close. I found a green wire on the big plug that was acc switch. Systems in but still needs adjustments.
I'm Bushed.
