I had a powered sub setup from Rockford Fosgate in a VW I owned awhile back and am considering going that route again just for simplicity of installation, but this is definitely catching my eye..
If you decide to get crazy, let me know. I'm happy to help, though it will come from memory as I sadly traded in my RC a few months back (they gave me $1500 less than I bought it for) but I did keep the beauty panel and subwoofer enclosure since the dealer didn't care if that was in there or not. I'm currently driving a 2021 Chevy Colorado ZR2 because we REALLY needed a truck again. I'm hoping to get into an RC-F once I pay myself back for this truck.

Will do sir! Out of curiosity would you be willing to sell the beauty panel and ship to Texas?

Sure. Right now it is sitting in my office. If someone else can use it, I'd be happy to sell it and ship it.

Really sorry to revive an old thread but I'm stumped. Do you possibly remember what speakers you tapped off of for your line-out or if you have a wiring diagram of the non-ML amplifier?

You are an absolute life saver. I'll probe the pins on a 40hz test to confirm.

Thank you!!
