1. The Kicker Hideaway sub box I'm putting in doesn't have RCA jacks on it. It does have both speaker and line level input support, but both just assume you have bare wires going in. That means to use the line level, I have to cut one end off of an RCA cable and strip the wires, so the LOC can actually hook up to the thing. Doable ... but annoying.

2. If I was able to find out for sure if there's a secondary Bose subwoofer amp hidden in the hatch area someplace in my '16 Nismo, I could tap off of that harness and have my remote turn-on, 12v power and even a usable ground wire. Since nobody seems to know for sure -- now I have to buy the amp install kit and run the positive wire from the battery all the way back to it, etc.
For your kicker you can grab the 2 wires going into that plastic sauces where your spare tires is in that harness. Send that directly through the speaker level input of the kicker.
