    Sorry, dont have time to help you out and get the direct link, but start here, i think 12volt should have the diagram and pinout that you need.

    what kind of line out converter did you get?

    most of the ones i used had 2 pairs of speaker connections which i connected to the rear speakers. just splice the speaker wires for the rears, and connect it to there.

    IT's a scoshe converter. I can tap into the rear speakers? I had the same set up on my old ranger but used the wires out of the rear of the stereo. Also what color is the turn on for the ignition?

    i set up an amp with two subs to my stock radio by using converter to the back speakers. no need to slice anything, speakers conveniently reachable through trunk so i jsut hooked wires onto speaker prongs and then remote wire i just connected to DRLs or some other fuse in fusebox under front dash, i cant remember, but needless to say i didnt touch my radio in the whole process and it sounds great.
