does the stock deck in an 07 ss/sc have rca outputs for an amp?

Nope. Just an antenna hook up and the connector for the wiring harness.
I just installed my deck/sub/amp in my 07 this weekend. You can check it out, its one of the recent posts in this sub-forum.

If you're looking to replace the H/U get ready to spend some money, you need a special wiring harness to replace the factory chimes and **** as they wire the 07s through the radio. You won't lose the DIC though. You'll also need the Metra 40-cr10 antenna adaptor and the Metra 99-3302 Dash Din Kit. If you have the pioneer system you'll need the GMOS-LAN-04 wiring harness, and I'm not 100% sure but I think it's the GMOS-LAN-03 for systems without Pioneer.

Also you'll need to do some cutting in the din slot as theres a plastic bracket that'll make your deck sit out like half an inch.. with mine the metal bracket BEHIND that plastic one lined right up with my rca's I had to bend it back

all that being said, if you have the pioneer system, the stock sub makes a good bit of noise with just an aftermarket H/U hooked up.

Good luck

dude answered your question an then some, just got to read

short answer for todays A.D.D plagued youth is NO, theres no RCA on your stock deck

 

all i want to do is add an amp and two subs to the sock system. possible?.

 

Yes, buy a line-level converter

 

sorry dude i'm a noob, what is a line-level converter?,and how much should i expect to pay?.

 

probably 25$ from any Car stereo place

 

It's basically a variable resistor

 

Search the forum for line-level converter, there's a number of posts on the subject.

 

so if i go the high level coverter route, what is the easyest way to hook up the remote lead?.

the rear speaker.

 

i'm not sure what u mean, r u saying the remote lead can be run on the rear speaker?

bump

 

It Goes like this:

Rear speaker ----> line level converter ----> RCA cables ------> amp

 

got that, thanks.
now for the remote lead. i've heard use the sunroof fuse, where is that located?
i have an 2007 ss/sc and from what i can tell all the fuses r under the hood.
if so is there an easyer way?.

 

The fuses are behind the passenger side trim panel between the radio and glove box.

Just look right next to where their feet go, you cant miss the big fuse box picture.

Just grab the panel and pull it out.

 

thanks dude you've beed a huge help.

sorry man, two more questions.
how/where did you run the wire, and how do you connect it to the fuse box?

does anyone know where to run the remote lead wire to the sun roof fuse, and once there how to connect it?

 

run it through the passenger side of the car, through the back seat, then under the trim peices on the floor, tuck it up and hide it under the dash, then into the center counsel..when it gets there, twist the wire and shove it inbetween one side of the fuse connection points (between the two metal contacts on one side)

 

make sure you use a damn fuse haha.

It's pricey (like $20), but go buy a Mini-ATO "Add-A-Fuse" from you local auto store and connet it to your fuse box that way. Less likely to come loose if you hit a big bump.

 

I'm not sure if you're running rca's from the H/U or just using the converter, but if you're running rca's all the way through, keep them on the oppsosite side of the car from your remote wire, you dont want the rca's getting noise from the electrical current.
It's really easy to run the wires through the car (the easiest being the passenger side), I pulled the carpet out of my trunk and threaded them inbetween the top and bottom halves of the back seat, tucked em down the side of the seat, and from there pushed them up into the plastic trim along the sides of the door. If you find its too tight there you can grab and pull up on the plastic trim, it should snap up and come loose a bit.
When you reach the front where you need to go up into the dash, simply tuck the wires around the carpet, and theres a hole you can see from inside the DIN cavity that's easy acess for any size of wire to pass through.
Make sure you keep the run of wire loosely fitted so it doesn't strain/kink/rub through the insulation. Good luck there's nothing to it.

 

thanks for the help guys.
