Why do you need to tap the amp? I did it by tapping the back of the stereo.

I have Bose and as far as I can recall I tapped it just as you did. Not sure why you are getting

noise on the line. Tapping at the amp is the same as tapping at the stereo...its the same wire.

That's right, and you also don't have to run as much wire through the car to reach the trunk.

You need a deep socket to remove the nut that holds that post

Not all brand deep sockets are deep enough though, I think Craftsman should work.

Yeah but you'll be tapping into amplified signal and that will degrade the quality.
