If you're hooking in with the factory system, you probably don't need to use the RCA outputs. You need to tap in to the stock speaker wires.

I'm not the best person to ask on integrating into the stock system (with a new headunit) because I've never done it (the thought makes me slightly nauseus). Nevertheless, if you can tap into the factory speaker wiring (for the high-level inputs for your HU), you'll be fine.

If you have a schematic and it tells you which wires are which, then sure--hack away!

http://www.the12volt.com has quality information about wiring. Give it a shot and see if you can find what you're wanting.

hook up your blue wires. You need to turn on the factory amps, the blue or blue/white(remote turn on)on the deck turn on when thedeckis on, the blue and blue/white on the factory amp goes to the amps and turns them on with the deck.
