I am going to install an 8 inch Bass Cannon into my Magna, Now I will need a 12 Volt Source that switches on and off with the key, but on a Separate circuit to the Radio...

I am running a 12 Gauge Power wire with in line Blade fuse and matching Ground wires. And as my Radio has no Remote or Power antenna wire.. I will need a 12 volt source for the remote..

Any Idea's???
Or should I wait till I replace the Deck with something that has a Remote on it ???
then install a Mother of an amp and my Two Competion 12 inches in their ported enclosure ??

your ciggie lighter 12V+ turns on and off with your key...or at least i think it does lol

if not, you can still youse the ACC to your headunit- just use a relay to be on the safe side

EDIT: re-read some stuff. I have 12 gauge speaker cables! lol I obviously have no idea wtf a bass cannon is, i'm assuming its an 8" sub in a tube, with some sort of amp built in?

I would reccomend u not install any of that stuff, and save up for a new headunit or subs- well worth the wait :)

Yeah your right EEK, I may aswell Save up.. I mean 88db of Bass is nothing compared to 141.2db....

and yes a Bass Cannon is an 8 inch Bass Tube with a 25 W RMS amp built into it, it is extremely handy for when you want to rice up a company car as all you do is attach the Hi level Inputs to the + and - of the Stock speakers and Boom instant Bass (Certainly have to add power and ground but its easy enough )
no messy holes or wiring into the cabin..
