You could go off a fuse for the remote wire from something that is only on when the car is on?
And I have only heard of people tapping into the rear speakers, if your amp comes with an adapter/converter thing that should be fine. Most LOC I have seen are mounted in the trunk? |

I used the remote antenna wire for my loc. Fuse would work too though.
LOC in the trunk would be easy if the new Focus would have speakers there. But seeing it doesnt, it would be more work installing it there and then running wires from your doors to the trunk for the LOC and then run wires back again to the door from the amp.

"I'm hooking up an amp to my 13' focus se hatch. I will be mounting (behind the rear seat) one amp and loc for subs only. What are the best speakers to use (front or rear) for the LOC? Do you have to wire in a fuse on the power antenna or is there one already there from the factory? I will be mounting (behind the rear seat) one amp and loc for subs only.

I ended up using my front speakers for my LOC. I also used the Audio control LX2i and it uses the speaker wires to turn everything on so I didn't even need the power antenna wire. But you could use it if you bought something else. Mine sounds great and is definitely overkill.
