Honda Civic 2008 System

[elbanda]

Well, here we go again. Simply put, I want to keep the stock radio of the car & install a kicker 400.1 amp for an alpine subwoofer along with 4channel amp(kenwood) for mids & highs with alpine after market speakers.

I got the amp kits already.

Can this be done? What am I going to need? I greatly appreciate all the help & info.

Easy man. 6.5" all the way around.

Do you have DX, LX, EX, or Si?

i believe you get what is called a line out converter or something like that. What you would have to do it tap into your rear speakers and use those (+) and (-)s as your RCA's. I guess you can do that for both amps i am not totally sure. Someone more experienced should step in.

yup, assuming your car doesn't have a stock amp, you'll need either a loc (line out converter) or amps with speaker level inputs, then just run your own wires to the speakers and you should be good.

not really, because he is also amping the mids/highs so he'll already have full range signal going to the 4 channel amp, all he'd need is an rca going from the this amp's lowlevel (crossed-over of course) out to the sub amp.
