I'm hooking up an amp and subs in my 03 GA... I have the adapter for the RCAs but I don't know which wires coming from the Monsoon amp are the RCAs and which one is the Remote...
If you guys could help me, I'd appreciate it... i'm in the middle of doing it right now

from one of my previous posts ('if u do a search for my user name u will see some more':
The input for the 2003 Monsoon amp (or output of deck) is LF(gray-,beige+), RF (light green+, dark green-), LR (brown+, yellow-), RR (Dark Blue +, Light blue-). These wires are slightly larger then the wires that go to the speakers (some of the speaker wires have the same colors;you will know what I am talking about when you see it). You don't need a line out converter but two ground loop isolators (GLI) (about $10 Canadian each). Plug in front channels to one GLI and the rear channels to the other. then connect RCA from the GLI's to your equalizer, amps or crossovers like any other stereo install. There is no remote wire. I used a mini fuse add-a-circuit adapter (plugs in like a normal fuse but allows you to put two fuses in one location (1 that was already there and one for your remote wire, then you just crimp the remote wire to the wire that is attached to the adapter). I connected it to the windsheild wiper fuse since that is a switched 12V source. ...i will get back to you with a more organized detailed instruction as i have go now. Before you cut any wires is your amp a mono, 2-channel, 4 channel? are you using factory front and rear speakers (you might not have to cut all the wires listed above)?
