rca wires.

you know them wires you use to hook the TV to the VCR in your house?

you need some of those. but instead of a 'three channel' RED\WHITE\YELLOW (3 phono jacks on eaither side) - you only need a 'two channel' - for example WHITE\YELLO (2 phono jacks)

now it dosnt matter what color they are. they could be hot-pink. they will stil do the same thing- DO NOT BUY MONSTER CABLE!

try these

$14+shipping - under $20 for a quality 'RCA INTERCONNECT'

otherward, you just need a sub, box, headunit (cd player) with RCA connections), tools and a car.

.
line output converter. it is commonly used with stock head units.

then an LOC would be used in your case. this is the one i usually use.
