Most factory radios are not set up to be connected to amps. You can try a few tricks to get you started though... 1.) If you have access to the wiring harness in the back of the radio, look for two RCA jacks (male or female), and an orange or blue wire (remote wire) that wouldn't be connected to anything except the radio. If you do have these, simple extensions can be purchased to run those wires to any aftermarket amplifier. 2.) If the car/truck came with a factory amplifier (you would know if it did), you can simply remove that amplifier and have full access to all wires needed for an aftermarket amplifier. 3.) If you were feeling up to the challenge, you can disassemble your radio and look for a pre-amp. After a few modifications, you can wire the aftermarket amplifier through the original pre-amp. 4.) Last but not least, most aftermarket amplifiers need only a few wires to get started. A power wire (RED - always hot), a remote wire (Most of the time a BLUE wire - only has power when the radio is on <<hook up to a toggle switch in this case>>), and your audio inputs. There are a few amps that do not require RCA inputs and you can simply split off an existing rear spear wire and tie in to the amplifier.

you must go to wal-mart or any other store and by the adapter wireing kit for that car. Most foreign cars need adapters to hook up to aftermarket stereos.
You can, but it is extremely complicated and not worth it. Your much better off just getting the deck with the dash mount and wiring harness so it makes hook-up easier and allows you to swith back to stock incase you decide to sell the vehicle later on.
Yes but you will need an installation kit. You can get them at lots of places like Walmart, Best Buy, Radio Shack. If you don't already have the radio, Crutchfield sends an intall kit with purchase of a radio. You can also find them on Ebay. I highly recommend a kit as it makes the job so much easier, especially the wiring.
yes, if going with a single din radio, you will have to buy a kit to fill in the gap.
Create a band press release kit and mail promo CDs with you kit to DJs of stations that play your genre.
Most locations that sell stereos offer free installs, this is recommended. If installing a radio oneself they should take pictures while removing the old radio and purchase a harness kit to fit the new radio.
As another poster mentioned, the same one from a 94 explorer worked but with the Amp you need to hook the dk blue wire on the 8x1 plug into the blue/white wire coming out of your new stereo. Otherwise you get no sound. Its usually labeled remote wire.I would not do this without a harness adapter kit like a stingpro F-5511 or a merta 5511. Save you tons of work for the $10 you spend.

Most times the satellite radio will use an anntena but if your car has a "AUX IN" or "LINE IN" you can purchase the Direct Wired Kit and use that to transfer the signal to your car.

In order to install a subwoofer you need: enclosure for sub, Amplifier, and an Amplifier kit. These three things can be found at an electronics store or online.
Yes, but you'll need to buy a dash kit in addition to the radio. You're looking at about $75 for the dash kit and another $15-30 for the wire harness, etc. Also, unless you get a double DIN radio to replace the stock one, there will be a large pocket in the middle of the dash.
Unfortunately, if your warranty has expired, you are out of luck as far as getting it replaced for free. If you have worn out multiple drum sets, I would highly recommend investing in the ION Drum Rocker. It is $250, but it is a professional electronic drum kit. You can even hook it up to an amplifier and use it as a real drum kit.
Its a Kit, and kits come with ZERO electronics, so no, it doesn't come with a radio.
You'll need RCA style cables to connect from your headunit to the amp. You'll then need Speaker Wire to run from the outputs of the Amp to the speaker terminals. You'll also need a heavy gauge power wire. A wiring kit such as the StreetWires Power Station PSK04Ri 4-gauge amplifier wiring kit.
Using crimped butt connectors or soldering, connect the harness from the aftermarket radio to a Metra Electronics Corp. 70-1858, and connect it to the stock harness. Use a Metra 40-GM10 or 40-GM12 to connect the stock antenna jack into the new radio, and I recommend using a Metra 99-4000 dash kit for a less tacky look than a standard flat dash kit.
once you take the dash off there are two clips on the side of the stock radio you push in and the old unit slides out, if you bought a installation kit with your new CD player it should have the clips to slide the new unit in
buy a wiring kit and a mounting kit. wire and mount done
