Page 464 of the owners manual, "The battery in your vehicle is located under the passen-
ger’s front seat"

if you open the hood, on the left side you'll see where to put the jumper cables just in-case you need a jump

Dude, what AMP are you adding? Where are you putting it? In the floor storage behind the 3rd row?

I got the DVD and tiny book as well. I tried to look one morning to connect an DC-AC converter and was stumped.

To access the battery move passenger seat all the way forward and open hatch from behind front seat. You will see a little lip give it a good tug and it will pop open.

I hace had a crossfire amp and jl subs and diamond audio components.

I replaced the the factory components. i put the amp in the storage bin next to the factory sub. i dont have a 3rd row seat so i have 2 large storage bins there i built a custom box to fit there for 2 12's. I used a scosche hi-lo converter to grab signal. i grabbed my signal comming out of the factory amp for the fronts. the factory amp is located under the storage bin below the flash light. I grabbed my remote turn on from the power leading into the flash light. i only used it to trigger a relay i didnt want any current draw on it.

I was actually surprised how well the factory sub sounded without that thick plastic cover above it.
