Exclamation Amp to Factory Radio

Hey.. I want to put a spare 12" sub and a amp i have just laying around at home into my OZ. But i still have the stock face. I know i can take it somewhere and get it done but i do everything my self so know one f***es anything up. So i want some advice if anyones done it to their lancer!?! Ive put Audio into my truck and it was easy but thats b/c it had an aftermarket face!

get another aftermarket face...there have been a few threads on this topic, but i saw them a while ago. someone said there is not place to hook up the sub to the stock head unit or something and you can do it but you need a converter. good luck.

i agree with 06, get a new headunit. it will be easier in the long run, and anything looks better than the stock one!

Use it as the inline fuse... Im not to sure if u guys know exactly what the problem is.... The only problem I have is the RCA wires from the AMP have no where to go into the back of the stock face. But i know you can some how do it cause my buddy got it done at the shop to his lancer but paid a grip, and the only reason he paid a lot is casue the labor!

ok first off....you are going to need to find the accessory power at your headunit. this goes to the remote turn on lead of the amp. next, you find the speaker outputs of the headunit and tap off them, feed them to your amp. if your amp has high level inputs, you can just use speaker wire. if it doesn't, you need an inline converter to convert it to RCA, then plug into your amp

if you don't know how to do it, i don't suggest that you try it yourself. you can mess up your entire electrical system. get someone else who knows what to do to help you.
