Line out converter necessary?

Question for you guys,

Is a line out converter NECESSARY? or can I rig up something with some spare RCA cables instead?

I have a sub and a amp, trying to sell it for a friend... nobody wants to buy it until it's hooked up...so im going for a cheap install, and dont really wanna buy a line out converter...

I do have spare RCA cables laying around (the RED / Yellow / White) which i'd only need the red / yellow. But, is there a way i could just cut those, splice those into my stock rear speakers?


Or does the 06 by chance happen to have a red / yellow line in on the stock amp that i could use?

I found some old RCA cables, cut them, spliced them, and i get sound out of the subs, but not alot of bass.

Could it be because i'm not using a Line out converter?

Yeah a line out converter is only 17.99 here and i mean it makes your job easier and gives the customer/friend sub frequency.
