G'Day everybody.
Merry christmas. Well progress so far over Xmas has been slow just getting the power feed from battery to the boot. I used a previous post.
1.attach red power cable and fuse to battery terminal and route into LHF wheel arch. jack LH front wheel & remove it.
2. Remove inner plastic wheel arch is held in place with clips & 3 screws for mudflaps. A trim tool really helps.
3. Remove insulation between door and front wing
4. Push power cable through a grommet into LH footwell.
5. Unclip panel beneath glove box, remove LH trim to unveil a lot of wiring looms. This is tricky but hunt your power cable.
6. Pull up lower rubber door seal and lift up lower door trim.
7. Thread power cable next to existing loom.
8. Door pillar / seatbelt was tricky too so didn't remove it, just lifted away and fed cable underneath.
9. Removed rear seat cushion held in from boot with 2 bolts through seat loops. Lift up seat cushion from front & remove.
10. Unbolt LHR door trim from underneath seat cushion. Lift up door seal and door trim.
11. feed cable along wiring loom into boot under seat .
12. Use one of the bolts for earth. Remove paint and add ring clip and earth cable and feed into boot.
That is as far as I got for power, this took about 3 hours partly as voyage of discovery & wasn't 100% sure if it would work.
As PD SR doesn't appear to have an output in LH rear panel as US Elantra GT. So need help
Sub amp can use both RCA or high speaker inputs where would the best place to get my feeds from. I don't know the wiring colours for rear door speakers to cut into lower door wiring loom, so will probably need to pull door trims off & cut into both rear speakers and then feed back to amp in boot.
also ran remote switch on along side power cable from battery and was going to take an auxiliary turn on. I could always use rear seat belt switch to shorten wiring
Any ideas on best way with existing head unit
