subwoofer on 2005 impala

[scagle]

does anyone know if i can run an amp and sub off the factory stereo?
THANKS

Most likely not,
If you want though, just remove the stereo and check for the aduio jacks.

Im gonna be doing the same thing on a 2003 so if there are jacks let me know, and have you run the battery lead yet? Wondering if there is a clean way to get through the firewall to the battery.

passenger side, look at the floor by your feet, youll see a black rubber grommet with wires already coming out of it.

[bingalls]

doesn't that grommet come out in the wheel well on the passenger side front tire?

Where would I go from there?

[bigrod118]

where do you go from the insdie or where do you go from the outside?....inside you run the wire to where ever it needs to be, and same for the outside. so up in the engine bay to the battery. I guess if I get a chance to get my car up off the ground I can take pictures of where I ran my wires.

I bought a 500 watt Rms kenwood amp, a nice 12 inch sony sub & box. Went to best buy had them installed, costed a pretty penny but I had to by the rca converter for $25 for the stock radio and it works fine.
