i got a 06 ss/sc and i was thinking of putting one 12" sub in the trunk. i have experience with installing systems, however my question is, is there a way i can keep the stock sub and stock deck still working and just add a sub and amp so that the 12" and factory sub will both be working? if so how do i go about this

 

Yes you can
just tap of the wires going to the sub and use Line level converter to go to your amp

I have one of these Scosche SLC4 Four-channel line output converter at Crutchfield.com
(Got it at Wal-Mart for alot less)

Tap the remote wire into the power window fuse, sunroof or another 12 source that comes on with the car
And as an added benefit, the battery is in the trunk for us, so power is an easy run

Good luck

 

you can get one of these at walmart for like 25$


but ill tell you this much, i had one, it was a working sub, but it didnt hit like the one i have now with a new deck, personally if ur lookin for some hard base id get a new headunit

 

i have this done. it works awesome. It is spliced in with my rear speakers

 

ummm, why's this is appearance? haha

 

that's just the quickest link i found

 

I'm planning the same, I want the all Rockford Power system, including two Rockford Power 12" subwoofer

 

I had a 12" MTX sub with only 100w going to it, and I couldn't even hear the stock sub anymore. I'd just take it out, save yourself the space.

 

i got a jbl 1201.1 mono amp im looking to get rid of if you need an amp to power that sub

 

I have 2 Rockford Punch 12"s and a Rockford 300 amp

 

you dont have to have the line out put converter if your amp has hi (speaker) level input, then you just have to splice into speaker line and save yourself 25

 

Yeah, i've got a 12' Dual in mine. I had to disconnect my stock sub/amp though. Both worked, but the Dual would beat slightly after the stock sub. Sounded weird.

 

thanks for all the help guys ill be trying this soon

 

there's another how-to, but this one is much better: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-...eadunit-85131/
