I love my RAM, BUT… the base stereo BLOWS!!! So after much research I found a solution that did not involve me cutting 1 factory wire. It is a bit of a pain in the *** but I found harnesses and the right equipment to do the job. Most of the items were available from Amazon or Crutchfield. I replaced all of the door speakers with kicker 3way 6x9’s. Kicker 3.5’s in the dash corners and a 12” sub in a ground-shaker enclosure.
I used an audio control LC-7i to convert the signal to a kicker 5 channel amp. Also used a pac audio ANC-CH01. This cancels out the active noise control system and allows you to wire your amp using the factory wiring without cutting any of the factory wires. Finally my truck sounds as mean on the inside as it does on the outside. https://9apps.ooo/

any chance you could give us the speaker Part #'s?
 
How about a pic or two! I'd like to see where you located the amp and how the 12" fit. Sounds like a great upgrade. I did infinity door and dash speakers with an 8" Sub. I'm now regretting not putting in an amp to run the infinity speakers although it does sound way better than stock. I oversized power and ground wiring so I'm going to look into a 5 channel
