elephantattack Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I know I posted a stereo related thing on here already but this is different. I can't find this anywhere in the forums (surprisingly) and yes, I've done lots of searches returning VERY little information. According to crutchfield I'll lose my stock sub by installing an Aftermarket headunit. Has anyone done this? Can you tell me if I need some sort of harness to hook the stock sub into the headunit? If so, where in the heck do I buy it? I mean, eventually I will get AM subs but for now, I just want to use my stock one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfxdave99 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Im 99.9% sure you cant use an aftermarket HU with an OEM sub without some serious custom wiring If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough. - Mario Andretti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdubs Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Yeah, I was going to do this, I was determined. Then I realized it wouldn't be worth it, because the headunit would more than likely have more power than the stock deck, possibly causing the amp to blow, or making sound distorted, and sounding crappier than it really should. Because the oem amp/sub is designed to be used with the stock headunit only. Was never tested on anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elephantattack Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 crap that kinda sucks... Well I guess I'm going to be saving up some money! I just installed the headunit today I have to put some pics up because it came out so nice gfxdave99 what on earth is going on in your profile pic? That's so messed up it's funny! crutchfield sent me an antenna adapter that plugs into my grounding wire so I only pick up one (really clear) station... Any ideas there? I suppose I'll just call them but you'd think it would be fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
