Default Remote signal on stock bose amp, 2001

I am trying to instal my sub and am not sure where the remote signal is on the Bose amp. I have been told by a number of people that I can get the on/off signal from the amp, as opposed to the head unit, much less distance to run wires etc... any help would be appreciated

Default any idea where I could find diagram of wiring harness to amp? How did you figure it out??

What about running the power cable, I am having a tough time figuring out where to go through to firewall into the cabin

Default one really easy way is to go through the pollen filter area by the glove box...there is enough

room between the filter and the sheet metal to fit it there
