I did this a while back and its by far the best mod. Clean, plug and play, and works great. My old 3rd gen fox box even fit under my 4th gen seats so it worked perfect. I like mygig to much to get rid of it so this was the best option.

I bet better. I forgot to hear it. Full range to all the 6x9s are way better. I wish I can do that to mine

Thanks for this write-up Gator! Helped me the other day when I was trying to install my lock-pick on my mygig.

for the 4th gen ram with the alpine touch screen head unit you need to order the pac chy23 and that gives you remote out and rca outs for your amplifiers and it plugs between the stock wiring harness and the stock head unit.. i picked 1 up of ebay for like $120 they usually run for like $160 and then you dont have to splice and wires it would cost over 100 for get a line out installed professionally anyways so this is something you can do yourself

I will have to refrain from ordering this up right now. It seems like the perfect option for me. How you like that Kicker Amp? I haven't had a system in quite a while, feel very 'out of the loop'. I love my Comp VR 10s.

I've done alot of research and everyone I've seen has drilled a whole through the plastic cover on the firewall that you are referring to for the power wire to run through and put a grommet in there. As for running your RCAs, I would guess it's just your preference. I'm going to try and run under the carpet, plan on doing this weekend.
