Re: Sub in/out

They don't have any RCA outs if that's what you're looking for. Your Monsoon actually has an amp for all your OE speakers (located just in front of your spare tire) but the only way to hook up an aftermarket amp would be to:

1. splice into stock wires to add RCA/signal converter

2. buy adapter which plugs in behind head unit without cutting wires (I can't remember the name, do a search and you'll find it)

Or you could just buy a new deck. Just depends on whether you're going to end up buying new stuff down the road anyway or if you're trying to upgrade the stereo without spending more money than you have to! If you're going to be buying a new deck in the future anyway, why not just go for it?

Re: Sub in/out

Yeah pretty much. I wouldn't pay more than like $20 for something like that though. Your best bet would be to splice into the signal wires for the sail panel subs BEFORE the Monsoon amp. At least that's my opinion.

Re: Sub in/out

Just watch out... the signal can become quite distorted going to those 6.5" subs... you can easily damage full-size subs as well...
