yes, use the search function ive explained this multiple times.

you need to usea line out converter to get signal to your amp and to get RCA inputs.

it is an easy install, you just have to splice some wires and solder in the LOC signal wires. You can get them at any car audio shop, just dont buy the cheapy 5 dollar ones, get something quality (trust me).

Want to sell your audiophile equipment? I'm picking up an 05 Friday and I don't think it has the Audiophile and I loved it in my 04 I used to have. I'm not big into stereo's so the Audiophile serves me well. Anyway, let me know if your interested and in the mean time I'll see if it's possible to hook up the amp/sub to a non audiophile head unit...

I recently wired up my neighbors system in his truck using a MTX re-Q via KCAutosounds recommendations. I tell ya what. Money well spent. It makes his system sound so nice. The re-Q has both high pass and lowpass outputs on it and we went with a DB Drive 3 channel amplifier (100x2 and 500x1) and ran all four speakers off the front channels on the highpass side and ran a pair of 12s in the rear off the sub side. His previous system was using a basic cheap-o converter and you could tell quite a difference.
