[QUOTE="cidsamuth, post: 10877348, member: 110091"] Nice. Out of curiosity, could you have done the following? Install the entire unit, minus the control. Have the gain turn way up on the sub, then just turn the base down on the entire system through the head unit. That way, when you want bass, you could just turn up the head unit a little and avoid installing the sub control by the accelerator pedal? This would also keep most base away from the stock speakers, which could be good or bad. I did this years ago with a bass tube on an Escort GT. Most of the time, the base on the head until was turned down to about 20%. When I wanted to crank it, I just turned up the bass on the head unit (usually didn't need to go above 1/2 way), and I didn't need to bother with a separate control. Thoughts, OP? I ask not to criticize, but only to plan out something for my needs later . . . [/QUOTE]
