a bit of info if you are looking to install some subs into the zb.
this was done on a rs or a zb with the 7 inch mylink screen.
the silverbox is on the drivers side up under the dash, you will see a plastic cover and there is a single 7mm screw at the very front holding it in place.
undo the screw and push the sides in to unlock the cover and pull it down.
the brown plug on the silverbox is the plug that has the speaker wires, i connected my subs to the rear door speakers.
if you do not have the brown plug continue reading this thread as the wires for the green plug are discussed.
you will need a amp with "hi input" functionality or a level converter to use these wires.
everything is pretty much the same as any other amp/sub install you would do.
here is a schematic from my manual for the brown plug, the wire colors might be different but the pin locations are the same which will be pins 11 to 14.
connect the amp directly to the battery in the boot, make sure you fuse it and set the amp to audio detection mode so it will switch on when the speakers output a signal.
after just adding the sub to the zb the system sounds really good.
