Stock Pioneer System Questions

[matt6249]

Ok I want to install the pioneer system in my 09 2LT does anyone know where i can find the amp and wiring harness (I know its weird but i want to use all oem parts)

being totally honest with you, it would be WAYY more cost effective and WAYY easier to just go aftermarket.

first, on the pioneer system all the speakers are run off that one amp (not just the sub), so wiring in the amp would be a nightmare in comparison to typical amp installation.

secondly, you would have a very hard time finding the OEM amp to begin with (for a reasonable price that is).

my personal advice if you want the oem look is this...
id just find a stock pioneer sub box, put an aftermarket shallow mount 10" in it, then mount an aftermarket amp on the back of the rear seats and you are done. It would look pretty clean, wires wouldnt be everywhere, and there are how-to's written about it to make it easy on you :D


just my .02 on the topic though

Do you need a hi/lo converter thing

[padlock]

am failing to understand what you mean by that??

[white balt]

I think he means a capacitor.

im thinking he means a line output converter?? but im not sure.. if so then yes he will need one of those also

he means a line out converter/splitter for his stock head unit. If you keep the stock head unit you will need a signal splitter or wtv to get RCA signal from stock head unit since it doesnnot have any RCA sub or 4-channel outputs.

you'll need one of those signal splitters wether you go with OEM/stock pipneer sound system or aftermarket, only it will be tough to find all the OEM equipment especially the OEM amp, and when it's all said and done you could probably build a modest but better performing aftermarket system for pretty much the same price.
