Which is this?

"Speaker Amp Trigger Lead

For BRZ, FR-S, and other models with a factory amplifier, you must add a new pin to pin #9 on the 10-pin plug -- the vacant slot between CA-Fi's ORANGE/BLACK (Power Antenna, at pin #8) and BLUE (dimmer, pin #10) leads, and connect that to their "pigtail" BLUE/WHITE wire labeled "AMP CON".


(click to see larger version).

Without this, the BRZ and FR-S door speakers will go silent. You can use the pin from the end of the SWC wire. Or, as someone suggested, steal the BLUE wire from another Toyota harness (Metra 70-1761, Scosche TA02B, or equivalent)."

Do I have to do the power antenna lead also if my car doesn't have a power antenna (below)?

"Power Antenna Lead

As mentioned earlier in the thread, CA-Fi's harness correctly pins the Power Antenna lead for Subarus (all models except non-navigation Legacy/Outback). But on FR-S and Toyota models, you'll need to extract their ORANGE/BLACK lead from their 10-pin connector, cut off the pin, and connect the Dashlinq's wire to the BLUE lead on your Toyota/Lexus antenna adapter (see addl. notes in my next post, below). On Subarus, you should remove (or don't use) the BLUE lead on the antenna adapter."
