i just installed my jl 12w6v2 the other day. for my gs300, what i did was remove my rear seats and deck. there should be a harness/plug that the factory oem sub connects to. what i did was leave it plugged in but snipped the wire about half way to the oem sub and did a wire splice to the hi to low convertor, then grounded the rca ground and hi to low ground to one of the 3 bolts holding down the factory sub. (though grounding is not necessary, it is believed to give it a better sound so i did it anyway). feel free to contact me for any questions. hope this helps!
