Default line output converter

I have a 2004 mustang with the mach 460 system, but decided I wanted to add some sub-woofers and was told I would need a line output converter. So I went ahead and got that and I'm not really sure what to do. I've read a couple of things on the internet saying the best thing to do is to splice into the data cable in the trunk. I can see the data cable but I have no clue what wires I'm suppose to be slicing into.

And please don't give me the "advice," of "mach system sucks buy a new one" not what I'm looking to do here.

This How-To might help you. No LOC necessary. I really enjoyed my Mach 460 system in my 96 Cobra. What sucks is Shaker... much harder to wire up anything aftermarket to it. At least the Mach 460 system has line levels that can be tapped into in the back.

Oops double post, sorry about that! If the mods could delete the first that'd be appreciated.

If you read about 3 paragraphs down, you will find this quote

"You need a LINE OUT CONVERTER to transmit the signal to your subs through RCA cables. What you need to do is splice into the following wires (2) black wires with white stripes and (2) black wires with green stripes w/ the white striped ones being negative…
Make sure you keep the negative (-) on the converter to the same on the data cable"
