What amp are you hooking up? Don't bother going through the fire wall. If you dont have the factory sub hooked up, Use a mini fuse 'add a circuit' from fuse #38,the top pin is hot side the bottom is the accessory side. Or use another Fuse position that isn't being used, it's easier than going through the firewall.

Interesting, where do you get the "add a circuits" from? Thanks..

Here is what they look like. http://www.anythinggps.com/index.asp...PROD&ProdID=99
A good auto parts store has 'em. I got the type that gets plugged in with the regular mini fuse. You then tap into that with a spade type connector.

I've had no problems at all. For the 2005(my application), position #38 is the correct fuse point to power the Stock Sub woofer.
I don't know what it is for the 2006, but it's probably the same.
They make fuse taps for just about every type of fuse block.

pie.net ...Precision Interface Electronics makes an adapter to go from the 16 pin aux port on the back of the radio to rca's or an ipod input...check them out, theyre pretty good units, I have one in my truck with RCA's and I soldered up an RCA to 3.5mm headphone jack, and put the jack next to my cig lighter.

I just want to take a moment to pay homage to this post. It was quite possibly the most helpful post to almost everyone on this site. It's almost six years old and it's still being used today. I'm actually going to reuse it this week to remove what I put in there four years ago. I'll bet it's the longest running post in the '04-'08 forum.

I just ordered a JVC112C3159 - FM TRANS/SWITCH to hard wire my JVC cradle to the radio on my 04 Lariat, it has the single CD with (I believe) an unused AUX button Radio head unit.
Should there be any issues simply 'plugging it in' to the aux line in on the back and then selecting "AUX" to listen to the Sirius receiver through the radio?
I'll be using these awesome directions as well
