    Got the
    $349 Alpine KTP-445U Universal Power Pack
    Alpine KTP-445U Power Pack
    From Crutchfield... blah blah blah.

    Got my JBL bypass wiring harness, WTF THIS THING IS A MONSTER!!!!

    Where did you all hide your Power pack?
    Anyone have pictures?
    Horror stories?
    I have done all my own installs and this harness looks like a BIOTCH!

    RCA cable for the Head unit to the power pack?

    All the help in the world would be great.

    I will do a     detailed write up of the adventure...
    Thanks.

    I spoke with Crutchfield technical support and they said that the whole amp and be pulled out. Also, I can cut off the plugs and actually tap right into the wiring harness. All I would really Have to do is get long enough RCAs to run to the head unit. That is if I mount the Alpine in the back where the existing JBL amp resides.

    They sent me the pin and wiring layout. Cake walk.

    Crutchfield techs know their stuff. Always use them.

    Sorry the size is off.

    The pdf is attached
