Default Installing Subwoofers with Amp Question....Need help!

Hey....

I've decided to add 3 subs in the vette....I bought the wiring kit, subs, amp, as well as a SLOC hi to low level adaptor which is used to add an amp to the factory radio.

My question is that with the SLOC adapter....it has 5 wires...White,White+Black, Brown, Gray, and Gray+Black.
I dont have the thing in front of me so i'm trying to recall from memory.
Brown it said is supposed to be Ground.
White and White+Black said something like left reciever, left input, or left channel...something like that.... :crazy:
Gray and Gray+Black right reciever, input, or channel :crazy:

So I think im supposed to connect those wires to some other wires that are hooked up with the stock cd/radio head unit. My question is what wires do I hook them up to....I havent looked at the head unit wires but im sure there are a lot so I was wondering if anyone out there has done this before---What do I connect these wires to????????????

Thanks :D

There are kits out there that require you to splice nothing. Simple plug-n-play. I had one before I went exteme...

Hey....

I've decided to add 3 subs in the vette....
Where the heck (and what size) are you going to fit 3 subs?? :confused: I have a bad azz JL Audio 12w6, and it moves the hair on my head.....but then again, I'm pushing it with a Phoenix Gold Ti 400.2. :eek: :D Seems like a lot of wasted space IMO. Sometimes quality excedes quantity. :cheers:
