You want to add an amplifier to your car. Your factory radio has no RCA outputs. Replacing the radio means losing your factory features.
The Kicker KISLOC2 lets you add an amplifier and keep your factory radio. It connects to your speaker wires and turns the signal into RCA output for your amp. It can also turn your amp on and off with your radio, without running an extra wire.

This is a 2-channel converter. For four channels, use two units. RCA cables are not included.
