Line Output Converter?

I am going to try to install another amp for just the 6.5 in the back seat of my 97 TA. I think I need a Line Output Coverter because I have the factory H/U. I was wondering how do I hook that up? Thanks!

A line output converter just takes the speaker wires coming from the back of the head unit and turns them into RCAs. Easy to hook up. Just match the wires together. (ie. left front speaker wire with left front input on LOC)

if you have an amp already, you can just use a splitter and get the signal from the other amp

If I used a splitter on the amp would it not take away the power real bad for both amps?

No. A Y-splitter will work perfectly. I didn't see that you already had an amp..... Readin a little too fast I guess.

I have the monsoon amp. My speakers in the back seat blew so I had to replace them. I bought Kicker 6.5's. The monsoon amp doesn't provide them with enough power so I need another amp. How would I do that?

Oh, you have the mosoon amp. In that case sratch that you'll need an adapter, I like the PAC OEM-1. You'll also need to splice off the wires, not just cut and rewire, otherwise you'll lose your rear speakers in the hatch.
