    Instead of getting a new deck I think I'm going with this. I'd much rather keep the nice stock interior look....

      Should turn out very nice. I like the converter idea as well except you won't get features from the head unit like USB, bluetooth, etc. I've gotten used to those and have become a must for me.

      Get er done... would like to see the end result.

          While the AudioControl is a marvelous piece, you have no need for it.

          The wiring kit is also masssive overkill, your battery run is about 5 feet, you could easily power those amps far beyond spec with 8GA, and you still neeed 3 sets of RCAs if you use the LC6i or 2 15' and 1 3' if you don't.

          Closing SOON!

              Why would I have no need for the AudioControl?

                  The CD43 puts out a fine signal to feed those amps: solder on RCAs and all is good.

                      What are you doing for speakers? Are you running with the CD43 like Luke says?

                          Na, no cd43 for me. Way too expensive. I was gonna go with the ppi 355cs but figured out the p.o. Had installed some himself. I know there are alpine s series in the front but can't remember the rear for sure. Infinitys I think. Nothin great but there decent and I think they'll sound nice amplified
