Default 2006 Silverado stock radio wiring diagram

OK, that information helped. Here's an idea you may want to consider. If
you are COMPLETELY stumped by looking at the back of the factory HU, you
could just use the speaker wires that plug directly into the rear speakers
themselves in the rear of your car (I don't know what kind of car you have,
so just for the sake of this example, let's say you have a sedan and I'm
talking about the speakers on the rear-deck). What you would do is split
the wires that go to the rear speakers (you would "Y" all four of the wires
that go to the two rear speakers) so that they are still connected (I don't
believe you need to disconnect the speakers), but you run this extra set of
speaker wires ("+" and "-" left AND "+" and "-" right) into your SVEN2.
Then you plug your sub-amp into the SVEN2 and away you go.

This way, you would KNOW FOR SURE that the SVEN2 is indeed connected to the
correct speaker wires. Also, you could use your fader control to control
the level of your subwoofer output (in a way).

Hope this helps, or maybe I've confused you more,

It's a SVEN2 from peripheral electronics. It came with instructions to

hook
it up to the positive and negative speaker wires (left front speaker and
right front speaker) and a ground wire. I'm just not sure how to tell

which
wires leading into my head unit are the speaker wires and which is

positive
or negative. There is only one wire on the SVEN2 that match the colors on
the back of the head unit (gray) . The SVEN2 has 5 total wires the

optional
ground is black. then it has a white (left front pos.) white/black (left
front neg.) gray (right front pos.) gray/black (right front neg.) My
vehicle's owner manual does not show a wiring diagram.

What kind of connector did you buy? Please elaborate and be specific.

Most
products designed to integrate factory systems with aftermarket
amps/speakers will include instructions on how to connect the product to
your factory system (and then to your amp).
