so you ran an LOC from your rear speakers, and connected that LOC to an amp for subs, but you're not getting any bass.
Most likely the LOC isn't the right one for that system, or something isn't set right.
it could be a lot of things really.

CC is notorious for not knowing what they're doing.
trust me on that one.

what make and model is the car, and what year?
is this a premium factory system, or just a standard non-amplified sort of factory radio?
If this is a premium or amplified system, you need a special module to adapt and tap into the system to get a clean line level signal.
let me know so I can advise from there.

you just wire the LOC to the rear speaker wires.
it should have had directions with it.

grand haven. that's about 45 minutes from me if I recall. lol

I wish we had more high end shops around here. I have to go to Saginaw or GR to find much in the way of decent shops. Ah well. off to ann arbor Friday for the day.
get to look at toys there if I get the time.

I try to avoid sharing that stuff on forums, because I end up with a hundred people adding me, and no free time or privacy at that point.
nothing personal.
it's like putting e-mail addresses in open forums. it invites a ton of unsolicited mail.
