    This link has the right colors for the speakers. (Even though is says 2007 prius) There is no amp power on wire but you can use the power lead to the radio that will keep the amp on whenever the radio is getting power.

    Thanks for the input. On the speaker wires I saw a video on you tube that a guy got to his speaker wire through the fuse panel on the floor and taped into them there instead of having to take the radio out is this true fir the prius c also is there a wire there that I can hook my remote wire to

    You could probably tap the fuse panel itself for the radio fuse and use that as the amp remote.

    By the way the head unit is super easy to pull and it's easy to route the wiring to the passenger side. Also lots of room behind the head unit for your line out to RCA converter.

    You grab the frame around the stereo and just pull it toward you. A small flathead screwdriver can be helpful to get it started. After you remove that piece you can see 4 screws that hold the stereo in.

    Its pretty easy to remove the radio. Routing the wires is pretty easy on the C too since its pretty roomy in that area.

    The 12v battery is in the cabin. It is directly below the rear right passenger seat. You can access it by removing 2 or 3 clips and the cover pops right off.

    Once you remove the plastic panel, you will get direct access to the positive and negative terminals. So, yes you have good access.

    Nothing bad will happen. The time and radio presets might be lost but other than that nothing else should happen.
