Car audio question

You won't even use the channel outputs of the new deck. Only the pre-amp, RCA plugs which will send signal to your current aplifiers.

Since your car has like 10- speakers I'm sure it has an amp prob behind the seat. So the new deck will JUST send it signal for it to keep doing what it's been doing.

You'll need a harness ($15) and likely a module to interface w the current amp (~$60-75)

dont expect that shit to sound as good as the stock head unit too... gon take some work to get it back...

Iono bruh...everytime I installed an aftermarket, the built in amp always made the speakers sound better.

I just put a pioneer avh2400 in my 04 gp gtp. I got 8 speakers w/ 2 tweeters and they sound WAAAAYYY better than they ever could with the factory deck. Best deck ive ever bought.

I lost all chimes and the date on my driver info center cause I.chose the cheap $30 harness instead of the $80 gm module that would have kept them. Fuck gm...them niggas want every$$.
 
Yo just go to crutchfield.com and all your answers are there. Type in the make, model and trim of your car and they'll show you parts that only work for your car. And if you still have questions, the customer service is the best I ever dealt with

Car manufacturers have been trying to lock out aftermarket stereos since the late 90's. Ford made the first serious push in the Taurus, everyone else has followed suit.
 
thanks for the info. im hoping i wouldnt lose any sound wuality since they arent bose level speakers. its an upgraded system but not the top level thx system lincoln uses. its an 180 watt audiophile unit with 6 disc changer in it. I want to get a touch screen system but only if i can keep all the other chimes and shit too.

I have the audiophile system in my 06 ford. You need to make you buy a replacement interface so you keep the amps power with your new radio. If not then you'll just have stock power

 
Yea...if u tryin to keep that amp, u gon need a gm approved module. Me....? Ion give a fuck bout them door sounds...they were actually pissing me off. Sounds harder than it is...u just need patience.
 
99% of factory systems sounds like ass. Not caring if you got the lil "high end" shit the manufacturer offers, it still sounds like ass.

Especially Bose.
 
I disagree. In my old altima it came with the bose system and 6 cd changer. I replaced all the components and amped them up with jbls. I put 2 jbl 12s in too. Shit sounded glorious lol. Bose is overrated and overpriced
 
Bose is overrated. Jbl harmon polk and most after market brands are better u just paying 10 times for the name. I built my surround sound home theatre piece by piece with yamaha and polk saved a g and its sounds way better bose is like the iPhone lol
