Sorry if it's in the wrong section, ok so first time I'm going to attempt this can anyone give me guidance on installing a sub into my stilo please also what fuse would I need as I have the fuse wire but there is no fuse in it, want the sub in the boot and am planning on fitting the amp in the little compartment in the boot on the left thanks in advance ?

Technical Wiring a sub
There's already a power supply for the amplifier on fuse F54 in the rear fuse box located behind the left boot liner panel.
You will also need to reroute the existing 8 wires that go from the radio to the speakers, so that they go from the radio to the amplifier inputs. Then you will need to wire from the amplifier outputs to the speakers.

I don't have that under the pocket and just wired it in and speakers don't work any ideas as I'm not the best with wiring but want to learn

Hi Infinite to wire a sub you need a power cable to the battery. A negative earthed to the body and a remote wire to the ignition. The battery wire needs its own fuse putting into the wire to stop any power surges.Also you need a set of plugs (forgot the name lol) for sound from the the stereo to amp.make sure if its a standard fiat stereo it supports the necessary feeds to the amp any other questions be happy to help as done to many of these over my younger years lol
OK so stupid me forgot I unplugged the connection for the speakers by the glove box (under the air bag key switch) that's why I had no speakers ok I got the wire running to the battery and the earth I have auxiliary cable (that's what there called ?) running also I wired the remote lead to the blue wire on the stereo no power ? so your saying wore it to the ignition any help on this would be great as to where abouts to wire remote lead
Any pics of which wore I need to join it to as I have never wired anything to ignition before
Thanks you your awesome I know how it is important working alot lately to 14hr shifts haha so all good
So I would really like to have a go at this tomorrow or Friday if possible can anyone tell me if they have put a sub in a stilo where they ran the live for the battery in don't really want to drill through the firewall I would rather use an existing hole than drill a new one
