    Hey all,

    i’ve been poking around the forum a bit, doing a decent amount of research and just wanted to verify a few wires, After seeing some conflicting information. I just picked up a 21 TRD Sport with the non-JBL 8 inch screen and while approaching 200 miles on the clock… I already can’t stand the radio!
    I’m going to cut in a SNI-1, followed by RCA’s going to the amp.
    I’m wanting to verify that this is correct:

    + —
    F/R. Ppl/ltgrn. Ppl/blu
    F/L. Ppl/pnk. Ppl/violet

    Thanks in advance!

    This is the wrong device for your application.

    I’m thinking about it incorrectly… Aren’t I? If I was to splice the RCA’s into the speaker wire, and feed it to the RCA input on the amp,that would do no good. I would have to splice speaker wire and feed it to the high levels, correct? (If I was to NOT use an LOC)
    Since I can no longer find the harness for high-level inputs on the app, line converter, it is!
    As far as the wire color… Yes I could pull the panel off and assume that it maintains the same color wire back to the harness and ring it out but, it would be nice to know ahead of time, too.
    Thoughts?

    Have you decided on which amplifier? You may not need to convert high to low depending on what you have/get.

    I have a skar audio 80x4. Nothing special, but it does the job. It has the option for high and low level inputs, but I can’t find the harness for the high level. In theory I could make my own, but I don’t really have the time/patience to go source the parts.

    LOL.. this is exactly why I hate forums. Nobody can seem to answer the question asked, ever.
    “What color other wires?”
    .. show me a picture of a wiring harness because by looking at the picture I should be able to tell you..
    “ what color are the wires?“
    .. What kind of amp do you have?
    “ what color other wires?“
    .. is it Thursday?..
    lol.. I guess historical forum rules apply: he with the highest comment count, wins.
