    Pics of install would be nice but I'm sure it's fairly simple. I wonder if a plug and play harness or adapter is available?

    It makes sense if it is done with a line out converter BEFORE the factory amp and the output on the new amp go to specific speakers like the fronts and the sub.

    I installed the Fortin Evo One in my '18 CM and it works perfectly (after a few setting changes). Very interested in this amp. My '13 CM with JBL was double the volume of my '18 JBL

    No risk at all the system can handle more than what I had installed.

    The amp plus the install was 100? Now this is really starting to sound nuts. How can you even buy an amp for 100? Nevermind get it installed.

    They bypassed the factory Amp by connecting it to the new Amp so it gets all the info from the processors

    No big hurry, but is there any chance you could snap some pics sometime to show how it's hooked up? That, or maybe give the name/info of the installer (if it's a shop) so someone here with some audio/wiring knowledge (not me) could ask them how they did it?

    But yeah, everyone lay off the guy! He may have found a gold mine so we don't want to scare him off into hiding :D.

    Listen all I did was state what I had done and what was told to me by the installer. No need to act like that.
