ok I figured that out now I've been searching everywhere to figure out how to connect my RCA's. All I've been able to find is people hooking up amps to their door speakers which involves taking out the stock amp up front which im not trying to do. I have a device where I can splice the rear speaker wires and its hooked up to a box with the 2 RCA ends. I haven't seen anybody talk about that so im not sure if I can do it because of the stock amp up front. I want to keep anything else stock up front. please let me know if this is possible. THANKS!

Use the line out converter you have, connect it to the wires going to the sub in the package shelf and it should work fine. If you do it that way, you can still control the volume of the sub using the Head Unit.

Use a line out converter or high level inputs if the amp has it, just cut the wire's going to the stock sub. Ground to the bolt for the fuel pump on the floor, run the power wire from battery, through the grommet in the middle of the firewall then back to the trunk. Also you need to add a remote wire, get an add a fuse and an extra fuse, put it to an ignition on fuse. I think 07-08's need to remove the active noise cancellation, not sure on that since I have an 06, but it was one of the simpler installs I've had to do adding just a sub amp.

You do have to remove anc from the rear dome lights...once you pop them off you have to unplug the green clip. Otherwise you will hear a lot of "thumping" noise and it wont be the subs. Also you may want to just disconnect the rear sub but splice you aftermarkets to the wires so you can use the head unit to control it all.

I did this like 3 years ago, didnt touch the navi unit
