My bose has been debosed by the previous owner. The factory amp is still present though. I'd like to use the Power and switched power from the factory harness for an aftermarket amp. do you guys have a wiring layout what each wire does that attaches to the bose amp ?
The car in question is a 94 S4.
Thanks again.
PS, Search did not give me the results I was looking for.

Taking switched power from the stock amp is fine, but running an aftermarket amp off the tiny factory wiring for the power is very borderline. It's very easy to run a direct fused line from the battery to the amp. Also, you need a ground line that is at least as big as your power line.

The battery is right there under the seat with easy access for running power to the amp. Running a nice big fused power and ground to and from the battery might even take less time than tring to tap in to the factory wiring for more than the switched power to turn the amp on and off.
