Would you see any problems having a competent shop do an install that way? I believe they'd tap the Speaker input to the stock sub, and send that to the JL, also ground, power and fuse the JL properly, which I understand is necessary to protect the car!
Did you ever go through with this? I have gone this route with a powered JL audio sub box, using the factory sub harness for high level inputs. I am having some odd issues with sound from the sub. I have disabled ANC and that did not resolve the issue. My factory bose sub (c7.5 2018 S6) has 3 wires, one is ground.. Assuming other two are l/r but can't find any info on that.

Great guide! Do you know if the factory head unit or amp that comes with this particular trim, powerful enough for an aftermarket sub like this or any other one? I just want to replace the sub and not have to install an amp if not necessary.
