Noob Question

Okay most aftermarket headunits have RCA outputs. How can you hook it directly up the your door speakers w/o going through an amplifier? What is the cheapest way?
Thanks

everything should just wire back into the stock harness. the only reason you would use the RCA outputs is if you are going to use an amplifier.

if youre not going to use an amp then dont worry about the RCAs. just wire everything up according to the directions and youll be just fine.

to clarify what they said, there are wires that come out of the back of the hu just like the stock hu for the speakers, follow the instructions and youll be fine

here is a diagram notice the amp on top that goes out to the speakers then also the speakers that are just wired to the hu on the bottom
