At least clean the trunk up . Zip tie the line output to the top of the rear deak lid and push the boxes together and put the amp on the backseat.

Sony isn't my favorite but for $100... you'll get what you paid for.

wow, u paid $25 for a line out out converter? you got raped on that one. i paid 15 from an audio store and a friend jsut picked one up for $7 shipped on ebay, and it looked exactly like mine. lol. I wired mine to the back of my radio. but i have a After market headunit now. but still, idk y ppl wire things from those speaker wires in the back. i think thats just pure laziness. you cant even really Hide the wires that way. thats jst my opinion. due wut ya want. too each there own i suppose

Wait....what?
How is it laziness? I installed my LOC, ran it behind the carpet/inside the roof of the truck. You can't see the wires at all from where I spliced into the speaker wires. The only place you see the wires is where they go into the amp. It's actually quite ******* time consuming to hide the wires.
And if you picked up an aftermarket h/u, why did you stick with a LOC? Why not use the Pre-outs on the deck?
