    Hey Guys, I'm installing an LC2i, Amp and Subwoofer into my 21 offroad Non JBL.

    Planning on powering the LC2i's GTO Feature and the Amp via the LCI's Remote out. Gonna ground with the Amp's Ground wire location. Obviously I'll have the Amp wired to the battery as well.

    My question is this. Where is the least intrusive place to use a Posi-Tap to run the 12V Constant required to power the LC2i?


    Extra Credit:
    Listed above is my "powering plan".

    I plan to tap into the front speakers and run those to the LC2i for the subwoofer.

    Any flaws in my plan?

    You’ll want this harness to about any cutting or splicing of factory wiring.

    You can also get constant power from the amp’s connection. These are handy for that. Just be sure to replace with the correct size fuse.

    It’s just a posi tap. Remote out on the LC2i will replace the remote in on the amp. With the GTO, I don’t believe you need to tap the 12v ignition. I would only need to tap 12v constant. That’s why I’m looking for the least intrusive spot for that.
