Quick video on how to run power from battery to trunk and how and where to splice your pre-amp wiring to get signal for the LOC. This process should be the same for all 2021-24 Lexus IS series. All my door speakers and dash speakers are upgraded already. I also upgraded the OEM sub to another 8 shallow sub in the factory location.. that video is under my public videos for my username. Sadly, that wasn't enough bass for me, so added this little 8 and a small mono amp. Now it's perfect. This way I can unplug my amp and take out the sub in the box and still have an ok setup if trunk space is needed.
Here's the parts list I used, all available on Amazon, about $285
Subwoofer - Skar Audio Single 8" 700W Loaded SDR Series Vented Subwoofer Enclosure | SDR-1X8D2
Amp - Skar Audio RP-350.1D
LOC (Line out converter) - Kicker 46KISLOC2
Wiring harness - InstallGear 4 Gauge Amp Kit

I have the exact same equipment as you do and set it up as you did. The LOC powers on so long as the remote wire is not plugged in. If I plug it into the amp and start the car, the amp nor the LOC power on.. If I unplug the remote wire and power on the car and then plug the remote wire in, then both work... Any idea what it could be? Thanks!

I found a workaround. I connected a cable from the brown/peach colored cable that's located on the OTHER bundle of wires that also connects to the factory amp. I think it's the one closest to the taillight. The other end plugs into the REM input of the amplifier. This powers on the amp only when the car is powered on.

@@DeepFriedFrog516hey sorry a bit late responding to this. So I actually started having an issue sort of like this after running this setup for a few months. But mine was with the ground. Essentially everything would freeze up and not work unless i disconnected the amp ground, powered off the car, then powered on the car and connected the amp ground while everything was on. Super not safe. So I went to an installer and they essentially said it’s the cheap LOC. I’ve yet to update this video about this. I re-ran the remote turn on from the LOC to a 12v pre-amp oem and then ran that to the aftermarket amp. Works fine. Zero issues. So essentially it’s a shitty LOC. the installer I talked to recommended the LC2i pro which is pricier. Will use my setup for now since it works well

Can the amp blow doing this method? With signal coming from RCA cable ? Did this on my 2014 is 350 after 1hr factory amp stopped working

@MrUaoleksiy25 Месяц назад

has been running fine for several months now.. ran for 4 hours continuous at a bachelor party last weekend in the mountains.. no issues whatsoever. what do you mean stop working? did it blow up? or if you disconnected the aftermarket stuff, the original would work again? if so it's a bad turn on wire.. happens, i'd hard wire it then if you used a similar LOC to mine.. as in hard wire it to another 12v pre factory amp.

Where did you ground the amp? Did you use an existing ground or give it its own?

@MrUaoleksiy25 4 месяца назад

There’s a 10m nut that’s holding the OEM amp to the chassis. I ran the ground from the amp and also the ground wire from the LOC to there.

@MrUaoleksiy25 thanks man! 👍🏽

Where did you run the remote wire from?

@MrUaoleksiy25 5 месяцев назад

I show it in my video.. but basically the line out converter i bought gets power signal from the speaker wire you tap into, so you run the remote wire from the LOC to your amp direct.. that's why i like that particular Kicker LOC with the remote wire so much for this install

Thank you!
