Any S40/V50 owners find a wiring harness for your OEM stereo deck for aftermarket subs?
I've searched the archives using keywords 'sub' 'harness', etc. and nada. I know there's gotta be tons of you 2004.5 to present S40 owners that have installed aftermarket subs, yes? I have an '08 C30 and over on C30World all the guys that have installed a sub haven't been able to find a wiring harness for the deck so they've had to splice into existing speaker wire in order to tie it in and apparently that won't result in the highest quality sound quality (at least not as good as a deck wire harness would do).
Doing a Google search for 'S40 stereo wire harness' netted a lot of hits, for example:
http://www.diguniverse.com/MOB....html
(But caveat this one says 'for 2000 and up', but every other Google search only results 'for 2000 through 2004 S40', so my hunch tells me this seller is wrong and it will only fit 2000 through 2004)
Not sure if this one is actually sub wiring harness - not clear from ad:

These harnesses came up on Crutchfield when I did a search for '2008 S40', so they must work for late model S40s, right?

So my question(s) are:
1. First of all I'm pretty certain late model S40s and C30s share the same OEM stereo deck, correct?
2. If yes, has any S40 owner out there installed an aftermarket sub and you were able to locate a stereo deck wire harness to tie it into the deck?
3. If answer to question #3 a resounding 'Yes!', can you paaallleeze post a link to the wiring harness you used!
A thousand thanks in advance!
