Post How do I install an amp with the OEM headunit?

I'm thinking of installing a sub and an amp, how would I wire an amp to the OEM head unit??? Do I just buy an amp wiring kit and plug the RCA plugs into the back of the OEM head unit???

OEM headunit doesn't have RCA output in the back, wish it did though. It would make our lives alot easier. You need a line out converter that tap into the speaker wire. From the speaker wire's signal, the converter will give RCA output.

If its anything like the CL head unit you can patch into the wires going to the amp and not have to use line out converters. find someone with a helm book, its layed out really nice.
