Hey guys,

i have a sub that i want to fit but im struggling, i cant change my radio as it has all the climate controls on it.

is there a way to wire it in to my stock radio as the sub is meant for an aftermarket radio so the power for it has to come from the radio too as the amp is mounted in the sub itself

any help would be much appreciated

    Need a hi level to rca adapter 

    Preferably a connects2 branded one 

    Takes in speaker feed and provides RCA output for the amplifier to feed the sub.

    Are you going for a sealed sub enclosure which provides resonating bass 

    Or 

    A ported sub enclosure for loud non resonating bass
