Stock Deck and Subs?

Hi I was wondering if it is possible to run aftermarket subwoofers and amp to a stock OEM deck? The car in question is an 07 VW GTI, and i would like to run two 12" fosegates and a t1001bd but dont want to change the deck if i dont have to. Any input would greatly help. Thanks in advance :thumbsup:

'07 GTI? Niiice.

Since it's a car focused for the younger crowd, they may include rca sub outputs already. But, if that's not the case you just need a hi/lo converter. It connects to your factory deck and gives you the rca outputs you need.

if u can, try and buy a fosgate 3.sixty b/c with a line out converter, that amp is gonna sound like garbage compared to how it is supposed to sound. You will need a cap. Go for at least a 4 farad, or a 2nd battery is even better if you like to pump ur music. That amp is known to be power hungry.
