Theres 2 wires hanging out the bottom. Are these fan wires and wheres the proper place to solder em where they need to be?

hmm, fan works with this disconnected

lol. This thread aint gonna go away.

Anyone have any ideas?

I don't think those are stock man... odds are someone installed some lights in there or something??

All the lights work properly. So does the amp. It even looks pretty freakin good. I guess Im gonna have to open it up and look. I actually have it in the car right now though.... They are pg wires though so maybe whatever the did isnt like a hack job.

the hole looks pretty round also. i know, i know, holes are round. what i mean, is that when drilling holes in thin sheetmetal, you usually end up with a bit of a triangle hole. that looks awfull round, and the anodizing around the hole isn't tore up from chips whirling either. interesting.

lol, thats funny. I would have to agree though, it looks almost like a punched hole or was drilled from the other side with skill/patience.

Open that ish up & look around, Im willing to bet whatever they go to will be quite evident once the cover is off.
If its just a power & ground wire, I dont see why anyone would drill a hole & run wiring outside when they can easily tag into the power terminals inside the amp.
I would assume hack without seeing whats inside, even with a quality hole or quality wire. lol

I'm talking light tubes, not the Tri-LEDs. Those would need switched 12v so you would either have to mount a relay inside of the amp, when tapping into the + and - internally, or run external power wires (far more likely).

LOL yeh. I kind of figured thats what you meant. My statment was more like " Its working. Im content" Im not gonna even mess with the thing right now.

Well you could always try hooking up power to see what they do

Just need to break out the meter and see what its doin or suck it up and take it apart. I hate doin that though. It seems no matter how careful I am I leave little marks on the screws...
