WOW! Not cheap . If I could start using my JL Audio G6600 instead of the factory amp, I think I'd be much more happy. I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth the installation hassle or if I should just replace the factory NAV and amp. But honestly, I don't mind the factory nav headunit, I just wish I could get AUX video while driving.

I've already did what you are attempting to do with great results!!
Good to hear cause that's the setup I'm going with. I had always gone with a knob underneath the dash for sub control and liked it. The stock sub with this punch control seemed pretty weak to me. To me the suckiest part of the stock Rockford setup.

Perhaps my new JL 5 channel isn't hooked up correctly, but I lost the fade. But I just went into the trunk with a screwdriver today and adjusted the rear speakers on the amp to an acceptable level of fill. For the sub I've always preferred a knob under the dash to dial in what I want.
