sup guys, look i have a 10" Dual subwoofer i already got it hook up, but inside the box there's a, they call it, IllumiNite lighting that can be wire to a 12v source. i read the instructions they said donnot hook it up directly to battery as that will drain your battery so....

the back of the sub already have a "ON" and "OFF" switch for the IllumiNite

how do you hook it up?
and what kind of wire do you use?

hEElp!!

He means 'Chassis', as in the metal shell of your car. It is a return path for current to your battery.

So just connect it to any metal bolt etc nearby.

You might also want to check that your headunit can supply (check your manual if you have it) the current required by the illuminite light (hopefully it says how much current it requires). My head unit can only supply 300mA through it's remote wire, as it's only meant to be a signal to turn the amp on, and not a power supply to run the amp.
