Is it easy to do an amp bybass?
First, an answer to your question. Yes, you can get an interface to run an aftermarket head unit with your stock system. Check out http://www.davidnavone.com/adaptor_products.htm. He makes high quality adapters although you might have to email him for the exact adapter you need.
Soapbox. Why are you going with an expensive CD player first? I am putting a Navone LOC (Line Output Converter) to use the stock deck with an aftermarket system. The weakest link on your system isn't the deck, it's the speakers and to a lesser extent the amps. You would get better sound by replacing the other components and then replacing your deck. I am not replacing my deck now because I don't want to screw up the aesthetics of the car. I think the deck with a high-quality LOC will sound really good. Just my opinion. Off Soapbox

I disagree, I think the head deck blows. It seems to have too many safety limiters on it. Like it tends to cut to bass at full volume. I dont like a head deck that you can tune it with it maxed out. The voltage output on that thing prob. sucks anyway. I am preety sure it is distorting my subs. I think the speakers have more potential then the deck alows it to prove.
