  I've had several shops swear that this was impossible and I needed to buy an aftermarket head unit in order to get aftermarket subs. I knew it was bullshit

  The add a circuit fuse thing is brilliant and I never knew they existed. Thank you very much for posting this.

  I think it's worth mentioning that while this is a quick and easy solution, it may not be the best way to do this to protect your factory speakers, and get the best  signal. Your factory head unit is designed to lower the bass frequencies down at higher volumes to protect the factory speakers. This means that your amplifier isn't receiving as strong of a signal as you'd like it too and you may become prone to push your amp beyond what it can handle to compensate. Also, tapping into the speaker outputs in parallel like this means that the head unit now has a lower impedance on it than it usually would have due to a less electrically restrictive path made possible by the circuitry in the amplifier's inputs. It probably won't be a problem in most cases but some factory head units may not be able to handle it.

  I'm just getting into car audio and was really not looking forward to pulling out my stock radio just to tap into a wire for the remote wire. That fuse tap is a life saver! Thanks for sharing
