Pay a professional like Tweeter (regional name I believe). Personally I think my H/K stock system has too much bass as it is, but to each his own. :smile:

You will need a signal converter and a seperate controler for your amplifier to adjust the level of output. Simply tap into the positive and negative speaker wires of your rear 6x9's and plug the rca wires into it. If you have a cooper s it will be very simple to install the positive and negative cables since the battery is located in the rear. If your's is not an S then you will have to go about runing the positive wire through the "cockpit" somehow. You can tap into the rear cigarette lighter plug in since it turns on with the ignition for the amp "turn on." However you go with a higher end JL Audio amp they have automatic amp turn ons. They require no "turn on" wire. If you have no experience with this then I wouldnt recommend doing it without the supervision of an experience person or just let a professional do it for you.
