Amp hookup to Factory Head Unit

[ROLLTIDE72]

Hey guys long time since I posted but I need some help. I want to hook a small amp and sub to my factory head unit. I have heard it can be a pain but I want the stock look and I know there are some guys out there that know how to do this or can direct me to a site that has steps.
Thanks in advance

get a line converter, they hook to the stock speaker wires. It converts to lowpower and has RCA hookups to run to the amp....

what he said its quite simple actually go to any stereo shop and get a line level converter.... it will convert your current rear speakers wires to rcs outputs and you can hook your amp up accordingly..

Ok Thanks guys. Is there anyway to have a volumn knob for just the base if i am using that setup with a line converter. Also will i even need to pull me head unit if I just tap into the rear speak wires and use any keyed hot wire for the amp turn on lead.
