There is no output from the radio for the sub, since it is powered by the factory amp (just like an aftermarket sub would be), so the positive and negative speakers wire are + Green and - Red coming out of the factory amp.
so if i wanted to get an aftermarket sub, i would need to buy a Line Out Connecter? Where would i connect that to in the back of the radio?

or...

how do i connect the Line Out Connecter to the rear speakers in an LX ???

There will be 4 wires coming from the LOC. Usually 1 white (LR +), 1 white w/black stripe (LR-), 1 gray (RR+), and 1 gray w/black stripe (RR-).

You can use the rear speaker wire coming from radio or get that right at the rear speakers, whichever you choose.

say what?!

you may find this underneath of the shifter...where the amplifier lies.

I tapped in my SUB from that so I can control from the stock headunit(navi)
Is the OEM amp in models without the sub?

I have a canadian LX coupe without the upgraded sound (no sub)
I would love to be able to run my amp for the four 6.5's and maybe a sub later, off the stock deck.

You can still run amps with the factory radio, you just need the LOC (Line Output Converter). It taps into your speaker wire behind radio and converts it to audio signal for RCAs for the amp.

Does this diagram apply to the 4dr LX Sedan (no Navi, no factory Amp or Subs)? I'm trying to install a new amp, and I need to know which of the above I should connect to the Amp's remote turn-on input.

so you can get a "LOC" and convert the out put from the facotry amp into rca for full range and sub amps? is this correct? you don't need an after market deck?

i wanted to keep the factory head as well. i already have a sub/amp. i just wondered if i could hook it up to the stock deck

So... just clarifying what I read here. To put my Amp and Woofers into my Si using the stock stereo, I could pull the wire from the stock 8" sub, run it through a LOC and into the amp? Or would I have to use the speaker wires because of the factory sub amp?

Just making sure I have it right, I've never done an install on a stock system without RCA pre-amps...

hi i got an 06 lx coupe. i'm redoing the entire audio system minus the tweeters which are just going to be reused. my question is, when i run the wires from the amp to the speakers can i hook them up at the outputs of the stock amp? i believe i'll be using the same gauge wire but i'm not sure what size is in the car. is that a good idea?

hey guys

does anyone know how to get the factory sub to work with a Pioneer AVIC-N1? I had it installed and the guys told me they couldn't get it to work... they said something about the ohms not lining up or something, can someone PLEASE help me out????????
I ran into a similar problem with another car.. the factory speakers were 2ohms and the after market stereo was 8 ohms... they wouldn't work.. I do believe you can hook an aftermarket amp made for subs that run 2 ohms to power just the subs. (if that's the issue)

I have an Si w/ steering wheel controls. Any idea which wires on the harness the steering wheel contols would be? I can't seem to find any info on it. I see people have added these to Lx and Dx models, but I'm running an Eclipse CD player that will work with them if I can figure out which wires they are.
