How do I change out the BA amp with a new amp

I believe my BA amp is bad. I wanna change it out with a new one. How do I do it is there a harness so I can reuse the current wires? I saw the sub thump fark but that seems only if I wanna add a sub. Any ideas?

Buy the fark, makes the swap clean and easy... I installed a Alpine PDR-V75 5-Channel Car Audio Amplifier w/ an intention of adding a sub down the road. The sound upgrade is amazing!

If you get this... 2010-2015 Camaro Plug & Play Factory Amp Replacement Kit V3.0, you can replace it... it is plug and play.

I don't have the time to pull everything apart in the trunk and take pics... the kit above will do what you want.

+1

This is the kit from Sub Thump that I used to add aftermarket amps, and it works great. Totally plug and play.

Depending on what you want to do... look at the Alpine PDR-V75 5-Channel. The sound is great w/ stock speakers!!!!

I'll do some other upgrades down the road, but totally happy right now!

If I have to ask a question to answer yours... it means I've exceed my BA auto audio knowledge at this point.
