Need to get the amp and sub into the car! Tried searching and couldn't find anything.

1: Is there an easy grommet to passthrough the power wire? I know I just dont want to trust the +12v adapter in the back ;)

2: Does the stock head unit have an RCA out to the stock sub? I can just go with the line level converter but I'd rather not.

I *really* want one of the double DIN nav units and then I can run the RCA from that but I dont want to spend the $$ quite yet.

on the b7 im going to do a complete system with the factory nav. I hate aftermarket deck looks.

8AUG fit just fine (one amp) I was able to pull the pollen filter assembly and there was a grommet right there. Snipped the 'nub' off and was able to fish the 8AUG through just fine :)

I used the LL input my amp has (save me some $$) and connected to the stock sub. Sounds/feels much better :)
