I'm trying to finish up installing my amplifier on the Stock Non-Pioneer Radio and I'm trying to find out if there is a place I can tap the Remote Amp Turn-On to in the trunk. I reallydon't want to route it to the cabin or the engine bay. If there isn't one in the trunk, where is the easiest place to hook it up?

Thanks!

There is none in the trunk that I know of.
I just used the sunroof fuse in the center console fuse panel.
It's switched and stays on with the RAP power till a door is opened.

If you want it only when the key is in the run position then the wiper fuse also works in the same location.

It's not hard at all to run a wire back from the fuse panel.

The fuse panel in on the passenger side of the center near the front.
The panel just snaps off.
And for the fuse there is a diagram on the back of the cover.

I finally got it hooked up. I used the Wiper Fuse in the console fuse box. It doesn't thump on or anything. The only thing is that the amp doesn't run unless it's all the way on or the engine is running. Like the A/C.

yes if you switch it to the sunroof fuse(even though you might not have a sunroof there will still be a spot for it)it'll stay on till you open the door or wait the 10 minute limit and shut off with the radio
