[QUOTE="PistolWhip, post: 16227187, member: 30361"] Forscan is not complicated at all, it’s actually quite easy and the software is actually free. The only things you need is an OBD II plug with USB or Bluetooth and a laptop with windows. Other then that, a couple minutes of googling and you’ll find the software as well as a plethora of proven modifications you can do with it by simply changing a number hear and there in the software. It’s really that easy. Once you make the changes in Forscan, your speaker wires will become low level, full data signals (so no crossovers or bass reduction issues). No matter what you decide you’ll want to get a FOR-11CK Parrot harness so you can splice into the factory speaker outs from the head unit, without having to cut the factory harness. The parrot harness will allow you to splice into that and then go back to stock if you ever want to, without any problems. Now to get RCA cables, I recommend 9 wire speed cable. You can splice 8 of the 9 wires into the front and rear outs from the parrot harness and then use the 9th run your trigger wire. Then run the speed cable from the back of the head unit to the area where you mounted your amps. All you gotta do now is splice some RCA adapters onto the speed wire and plug them into your amp. Even if you decide to get a LOC instead of using forescan, you’ll still need to get the signal from the head unit to the LOC, which will end up being the same process as I posed above; then RCA’s from the LOC to the amps. Unfortunately that still won’t fix the factory EQ / bass reduction problems though. So essentially the forescan method takes one step and one component out of the system completely and fixes the sound issues without having to buy any other components or alter the factory wiring.
