Read the FAQ. As always, you'll need a DCI but you'll need to confirm compatibility with those specific head units. Modifry's DCI is always highly recommended (refer to existing threads on DCI's).

Thanks, Did that I wonder more along the lines if someone might have already configured the pin out for the plug. Still interested in it if anyone has, but I'm pretty sure its for the head unti to control a cd changer

Anyhow, does anyone have a recommendation for a cross over that fits behind the door panel?

Any guestimate on how much wattage the ap1/ap2v1 headrest speakers can handle? My only 4 channel amp is 90w x 4, but I can tube role it and drop its primary gain circuit to ~70% of the OE tubes. Then the mosfets won't be driven as hard droping the output a bit, too. Maybe ~60-70w, 49w rms if the conversion has an equal effect ???? Thats still seems to high for the head rest speaker. Has anyone ever opened them up to see if they are upgradable (I never ran across it in my searches).

Last question today

Is there any way to fit 2 12s in the trunk?

I have posted questions all over the internet on the headrest speakers to no avail.... I think they suck so bad that no one has ever took the time to to check whats under the hood.
