i was wondering if i can hook up subs and an amp to my stock radio
if not how would i do this because the radio is differen than any car ive ever messed with
please help
i dont want to screw anything up

 

Yes its possible...search and ye shall find

 

take it to freeman's car stereo.. they only charge about 100 bucks for install... they do a good job too! (there is one on independence, up near lake norman, one off south blvd.) not so much our your way though. sorry

 

yes u CAN.! they have no RCA outputs so you have to use a line out converter LOC and get the signal from the rear speakers. Wont sound as good but youll have the extra thump in the back. ill be doing this to my car after winter.

 

what about putting an aftermarket radio in it would it look stupid?
like would it fit?

 

It would fit, go to crutchfield.com and do the whole "what fits my car" thing and you can see your options and learn about different components you'd need.

 

it will look Gay IMo. i prefer to keep it stock

 

Aftermarket stereos benefit from better frequency response, a wider variety of features (built-in iPod connections or USB ports, for example), and often their own internal amplifier or outputs for a separate sub/amp system. If you're serious about car audio, the head unit is a big thing, because it's what reads your music. But the big thing first I think is take care of your speakers, the improvement in sound quality from head units is negligible compared to the difference between stock and a good set of speakers.

 

its easy to set up a sub. like someone said you need a line level converter. I have had mine set up 2 month after getting the car. alpine 400w mono pushing a 10 w6 JL sealed. it sounds good and work's great with a stock set up and it's not to heavy. as far as the head unit you have to go double din or it will look funny IMO! good luck

Yea, even though it says Premium, our speakers weigh nothing and are about as small as a quarter.

 

what is the stock amp rating on our cars?

 

thanks for the help everyone
