I just installed 2 amps. I used an audio control amp for the speakers with that GTO feature that turns on whenever it senses signal and I won’t need a remote wire. The problem is, it won’t turn off. I don’t know if there’s always an audio signal or something else. Anyways, I need to run a remote. What’s the easiest thing to tap into so I can get this damn thing off when the car turns off.

Just tap a fuse on an accessory power(ed) circuit?

Easiest would be the fuse box where the 3 position fuse for the 12V accessory port is. One side is run, the center is load, and the other side is battery. Move the fuse so the 12v port is always hot then stick a spade terminal in the other side. See New 5th-Gen 1500 Fuse / Relay / Circuit Breaker Diagrams & Documentation
