You also need to disconnect the noise cancellation microphones or you get a weird sound...
For pre-2019 cars, which yours is I believe, there are a myriad of harnesses that can connect at the Bose amp and give you a set of wires that you can tap full signal from and connect you sub amp or active LOC.
LLJ Customs makes one and I believe S**Thump as well.
If you're using an aftermarket amp and sub, why do you need the 6x9s in the rear deck? they are there essentially as subs. If the sub you have is good, you should be able to disconnect the 6x9s in the rear deck all together and get all your lows from the sub...

That’s just how my installer did it. I really didn’t know what was the procedure or best way. just read on here that with the Bose only add a subwoofer or it can cause problems with the system. I’d be happy with just the sub and not using the rear 6x9s but since the installer tapped into them I’m gonna have to see if another shop can correct it. I’m pretty sure those harnesses weren’t used. I’m wondering if I should get the sub thump one and make sure the new installer uses it? Also I was told that the V6 with Bose doesn’t have the ANC mic. Not sure if that’s true or not? stuff is so confusing with this car lol!
