K..You should see a Solid Blue wire..thats the REM....just solider..or twist and tape the rem wire that you got from your amp kit(usually 16-18 gauge)...and hook it up to your amp..

Hope this helps

Yes its a small blue wire from your deck..And yes its nessacery to hook-up to your amp..because it turns on the amp when your deck turns on..And yes its thats small wire that is with the decks other small wires

What REM means is remote. It is the voltage input for an amplifer's internal relay switch. All this does is provide a 12 volt source to turn the amplifer on (not power the amplifier. That comes from your main power run). If you cannot find the REM wire on your deck, you can tap a 12 volt source from your fuse panel and feed it to your amp. Make sure you install a switch if you do it this way as this is required to turn your amp on and off. If you connect it through your deck, you would not need the switch as the deck does the switching for you....
Hope this helps...
