the metra 70-5522 plugs into the factory sub harness and into the d1's sub out. connect the blue/ white wires together, but put a resistor between the two. somewhere between a 2.4 and a 3k

im a newbie so when you say connect the resistors to each one of the cables what do you mean by 2.5 to 3k?? sorry :shock:

the value of resistance

Does the resistor technique work on any vehicle? The reason I ask is my mustang I has a different voltage between stock an aftermarket so there is a pop on turn on/off. Would the resistor fix that?

yes, the 3k is what i use on fords to eliminate the pop

REally? I thought wire nuts were the best.
