Stock Radio for installing Subs/Amp?

[robkule422]

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to install some sub woofers in my 1999 ford explorer. I've heard that I would need to purchase an aftermarket CD player/radio. I currently have the stock one in there, and am wondering if that would work, to install my amp to the player.

There's a picture of my radio I currently have in there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

you are wondering if what would work ?

Yeah I want to know if the stock radio is able to hook up an Amp and Subs.

typically, yes but it mostly depends on whether the factory radio has a built-in rolloff on the lower end. You might want to find a forum that is specific to your vehicle, they would would have more knowlede about it than anyone here.

i've used these before, i can't really speak highly of the signal that it puts out, but i will allow you RCA outs for your amplifier, just tap into the speaker wires in the rear of the vehicle

i have a 2010 Toyota corolla S and its still under warranty so i cant put another head unit in there. i have subs and an amp and i would like to install them. i understand i need a line output converter to do so. but my question is can i install them without touching the head unit??

[PaulD]

yes, the LOC can just wire straight off the speakers in the back without ever removing the headunit.

For your ford explorer you will need a line output converter u dont need a aftermarket deck it simple hooks up to yer speaker wire in the back and has rcas on the box so u can put your amp rcas in to it

ya typically speaking you can just get a converter they usually run about 20 bucks.
