loc wiring help please

I need some help with wiring my line out converter on my 2k3 tl-s. What I see are 4 wires running right out of the stock sub: 2 black and 2 red. Then there is a white box out of which 4 wires run that are different from the red and black, and go to the amp. Where do i connect the wires on my LOC? Also how exactly do I attach those wires, just strip part of the wire and twist my LOC wire on? Any help is appreciated. PS I did check old posts but wanted to ask some specifics on my own.
Thanks

I don't think you need to hook up a LOC. Are you adding a Sub Box? If the answer is yes than you can get the signal off the brown shield twist pair before the Bose Amp behind your rear seat.(two wires in a twist pair) give you single channel for the sub. Beside I think it may burn you loc if you connect to the speaker wire after passing the stock amp.

Yeah i've read that you can do it by tapping those brown sheathed wires.... But i already have a loc and I don't have any crimp on RCA's so I still want to use that loc if possible....

bjo, you don't want to use a loc for signal from the sub out to the sub (if that's what your trying to setup). The signal that runs into the sub amp is already a low voltage signal. That's exactly what you need to connect to your aftermarket amplifier. Running a loc from the bose amp out wires is redundant and it won't sound good. Do a search on this subject. Someone did what you wanted to do with a loc and the bass quality was really bad.
