How is that possible ? The RCS lines will have to be ran to the back where the amp is gonna go, then I would have to run the speaker wires by the head unit to the factory wires, I would rather run new speaker wires to each speaker, it just seems easier to me, unless I'm missing something . I won't he doing competition but I will have 2 amplifiers.

The speaker wires I believe what he is referring to is run speaker wires to amp & back (input & output) then use a harness at the HU.

Upgrading the sound system is a game-changer for those road trips and daily drives. I totally get wanting to keep the stock head unit – it's sleek and blends right in. But man, finding those plug-and-play harnesses can be a mission. I've been scouring the web for a while now, but it's like finding a diamond in the rough. However, I recently stumbled upon the xiegu xpa125b amplifier wholesale at https://radio-gx.com, and it seems like a solid option. It might just be the missing piece to your setup puzzle.

If finding the right plug-and-play harnesses was the only issue. It's a massive rabbit hole.
