usually, if the wire is marked, its negative

not true the SSE and the SSEI have rear tweeters and a 6x9 with an amp, its actually quite difficult to decipher the wire colors without the diagram

just getting into h-bodies. ive been an a-body fanatic for quite some time now

then you will have a BLK/ LT. green wire from the amp that goes to the 6X9 sub that is your (-)

you will have a DK. blu/ white wire from the amp that goes to the 6X9 sub that is your (+)

Yup looks good

if you want 12'* then you can just get a simple sealed box. or if you want a custom one just go out and measure the trunk and build hte box accordiangly

corvettecrazy is on a distinguished road

if your amp has speaker level inputs you should just be able to tap into them and use those as inputs.

it does, well, did... i lost the harnes that came with it for speaker level connection. This is the 3rd vehicle that i've put this system in and the first that didn't have an aftermarket HU. RCA is really my only hope as of now.
