Default Stock Stereo and Subs??

Does anyone know if the stock stereo (shaker 500) has an output for subs? I want to move my subs from my caddy to my mustang, but i don't want to replace the stock head unit.

my shaker 500 had subs in the doors...

i pulled out the head unit and the subs within a week of buying the car new.. poor quality for a 28k dollar car at the time

I didn't look what speakers are in the doors, I just wanted to move my 2 10's from my other car over haha. I wanted to keep the head unit so I could keep all the voice activated stuff.

There should be. I moved my two 12" over. I had them hooked up and my windows tinted by one of the local shops around here. They sound amazing once you get some bump in the back. Brings out the potential of the "SHAKER"...

The 2011-12 shaker 500 does not have a sub output. You can use an amp with speaker level inputs and use the rear speaker signals to run the amp.

Yea, get a JL cleansweep to hook up those subs via speaker level from the rear speakers.
The sheitter 500 does not have rear (trunk) sub outputs.
Even if it did, they OEM sub outputs on the sheitter 500 are
EQed for the stock Sheitter 1000 subs and aftermarket subs sound
carpy reproducing that mangled up garbage.

Window tinting place hooking up subs?
No thanks.
Whats next, drive thru haircuts at Mickey Ds?

Hey, they've done good on my other two cars including my p.o.s volvo. They are about the only place around here that will go illegal on tint and not over charge on installation.

Devious operations?
I would not trust them to be honest with
you if they cannot follow state laws...

Think about it...
