Default no, no, no

you need the RCA output adapter, which connects to the HU and gives you 4 (or 6) channel RCA outs plus a remote turn-on lead. Use that to feed your 4-ch amp, and then pass-thru to the sub amp. No need to mess with hi-low converters or tap into any of the stock signals if you are going to amp all channels

Default answers...

there should be front L/R RCAs, rear L/R RCAs, center and sub RCAs, and a remote turn-on wire. I have the older 4-channel version, which I've been meaning to install for about 4 years now =P but I've tested it and it works well.

Default well I don't need it right now...

I had originally planned to replace speakers and amp them, but ended up just throwing a small sub in the trunk. I'll do it at some point, when I run out of other mods. SQ went up significantly just by installing the RNS-E
