my installer mentioned the amp needed a remote to be turned on and off so i skipped the install for any amp.

anyone else know of a low-cost solution and amp that works with these cars? not looking to throw $1000 just to get an amp up and going

All amps need a remote turnoff, its not a big issue. Just have to connect to something that actually turns off in this car.

Anyone have a suggestion?

All fixed, switched from noise sensing to direct feed through fuse 134 in the trunk.

No it was using a sound sensing device that was defective. Installer just switched to fused circuit for shut off.
