Factory Amplifier location?

[AndyB]

Hi all, I'm trying to install an audio interrupt device for my ham radio output. It on my '22 gladiator eco with the 8.4 Uconnect. Does anyone know the audio amplifier location?

Also, there's a mute button on the dash - I'd think it would be easier to hijack that single easily-reached button harness, than the entire amplifier. Ham audio keys on, N.O. relay spliced into button loop closes and activates factory mute function. Ham keys off, relay opens, mute deactivates, back to normal

Now if you want to reduce volume instead of block it entirely, that might need the amp-to-speaker feed

The mute is not a single wire input to the factory head unit, or I agree this would be the easiest way to go.

Thanks anyway, I was able to install the device directly to a dash speaker. I am trying my best not to add a bunch of accessories to the dash including extra speakers.
