no, you have to get either line level converters, or an amp with speaker level inputs.

Yeah Bestbuy, circuit city, futureshop, canadian tire (not sure if u in the US or CAN) pretty much any audio place. they're about $25 up here in CAN. so yeah, i wouldn't imagine they'd be very much in the US.

Really not worth the trouble with a stock headunit. I say go the extra mile and spend atleast 200 on a headunit. We may even have some in the bazaar.

U may not want to plug an amp to the stock stereo.... i'm sure it will sound great, but you will probably/eventually blow out/ruin one of your speakers. I got a kenwood excelon KE-889 headunit in mine, and it made it much better, even though i have a cracked speaker in the back. Take Menace's advice and get a headunit with a pair of decent 6x9s. I'm sure you'll notice a difference.

Much more power in an after market headunit. I was replacing my gfs headunit, her stock headunit was, I belive 10 volt and her new one was 50.

I ran an amp with speaker level inputs on my stock deck for several months...it's fine....just not as good as sound quality as you could get w/ any aftermarket deck.......there is absolutely NO harm in doing an amp w/ a stock head unit though
