you have to but a speaker to rca converter. wire it in with one of your back speakers and there is your rca connections. you really are going to need a stand alone crossover so dont get cheap on it or you will hurt the sub!!! Do not mix your bass and your mids!!!

if the system has a factory amp, you may need to install the RCa convertor before the factory amp...i know with some vehicles, and a good enough amp (with a built in adjustable crossover), you do not need the RCA convertor...the way you will know, take a speaker wire from one of your rear speakers, and hook it up to your amp/sub...if it hits like it should, it will be fine...i have an expensive amp with a crossover filter, so i didnt bother installing a stand alone crossover...
