I need to know the wire colors for (+) (-) front left and right speakers and rear left and right so i can tap and get one full range signal from summing them up near the amp.

Front right: pink +, purple -
Front left: green +, blue -
Center: yellow +, black -
Rear left: black +, yellow -
Rear right: red+, white -
Sub 1: pink +, violet -
Sub 2: blue +, green -

You can locate the pair for the rear because they are together at the amp and the center is separate. You don't want to sum the front and the rear, use one or the other for your input as they can both be full range depending on your dsp settings.

AudioBob... so the non-ML amp is 7 channels?

I have some old PPI Art Series and Power Class chrome amps that I've been thinking about installing.

I guess that technically it is seven channels, but two channels go to a dual voice coil sub.

Thanks AudioBob!

Any chance you know the impedance by channel or by speaker? I've searched for this and can only find the ML for some reason.

Thanks again.

I have this and I will post it tomorrow. I am thinking that the front and rear are 4ohm, the center is 10ohm and the sub is dual 2ohm.

Thanks so much man i appreciate it!!!!!!!

In my IS i had, i used the front driver side only so that if i was listening to music loud and using my navigation it would cut out the bass etc so i could hear directions, guess i will stick to that method once again.

hi im nearly new to the audio scene and i have a 2008 gs350 non ml with navi and i want to add my w6 so
i was told i needed a line out converter and i needed to grab signal from a speaker to get a rca cables
so if im reading correct i could just tap the (pink+) and the (purple -) and i should be fine? sorry i have 5 years of warranty left so i dont want to risk anything! thanks

Most line output converters have 2 channels of input. So you would want to tag both the pink/purple and the blue/green.

I would unsolder your + and - for your subwoofer, and tap off of that, that way you can resolder them later onto the sub and still keep warranty.

FYI: While I still had my warranty, Lexus had no problem doing things with my system still in place, so having an aftermarket subwoofer system SHOULD NOT void your warranty.

And Audiobob? HUGE PROPS and THANK YOU for the diagram, I've been contemplating back and forth with myself whether or not these wires are what they are..... Now I can further confirm myself that they are indeed the wires
