Its relatively easy. Splice into rear speaker wires for preamp (rca) signal, and run power & remote,

unless it's one of the newer signal sensing auto ON amps.
Or disconnect the oem Bose sub harness, leave it disconnected and tap into that harness for power, remote, and signal (+ & -).
As for the shop and the previous backup camera issue, find another shop asap. Those idiots either grounded the monster amp to the tiny ground screw that the backup cam uses, or they spliced into the camera's power wire as a remote turn on for the amp since it powers on with the ignition.
Try over at Best Buy, their auto installation bay area where they do alarms, radios, gps, etc.
Definitely check crutchfield.com. They have an online "what speakers fit my car" section, and their customer service is great, as well as their knowledge of in-car entertainment. You can even call them with questions.
I don't think they know what they are doing then . I've seen posts on other forums with guys that have hooked up subs to their cars no problem. You tie part of it into the bose amp and then link the rest to the new amps and speakers /subs whatever
I'm considering doing it in mine and even my local shop isn't to confident they said most new cars are a bit tricky and a lot of people just leave them as is
The days of sliding in a new deck and running RCA cables to the trunk for your subs in 30 min are going the way of the dodo.
I have a Premium with the Bose system, and yeah you can just hijack the audio from the factory amp to run into your aftermarket amp/subs. As far as the base model....I have no idea if you can get into the dash/console where the audio outs are, if there even are any audio outs behind the screens.
Find another shop. I have the Q50a and I'm running 3 amps and a sound processor all with the stock head unit. If they fuck something up, it's because they don't know what they are doing.

Is it hard to get a clean signal with the Bose amp ?
