Default Hookin up subs, but dont want to take out factory head unit

What up everyone, i got a 02 accord and i wanted to hook up some subs to it. I got the 6 disk cd changer and i dont want to replace it b/c i payed extra for it. I know that i need a rca box to hook up the cables, but is there anyway else i can do it?

Does anyone have a rca box they dont need? Or Does anyone know where i can get one?

just go get a box from anywhere, they run anywhere from 15-50 bucks, more you spend, more quality you get, make sure the connections are good and clean

if you want it to be quality, do it the right way. if you arent going to do it the right way - dont do it at all.

You can always just buy an afermarket deck that will work with your changer and then you will be set, but otherwise you can use the high level imputs which almost all amps have or use the rca adapter.

WTF?? Do you moderate? No. Keep your bagged accord out of the conversation.
He was asking something technical. Car audio is one of the most technical aspects on this forum.
