stock equalizer question

My car is factory premium sound- no EQ.

Are the plugs behind the storage panel to just plug in?

Or is it something harder?

Thanks
Mike

I've pondered the question, but I'm really new to these and the TC is still on the lift with another car under it

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

The plugs are there, they are tied up. Make sure that you are looking in the correct place in the trunk behind the rear seat, drivers side.

Im talking about hooking up a factory EQ in the factory location in the dash, of a car that didnt come stock with the EQ??

Mine has the EQ and I was under the impression that you need a non-EQ head unit to connect it up. That HU doesn't have a fader because the EQ does, and it comes with a specific  plug to work with the EQ.

Course it doesn't really matter, do a search here and you can see how to splice it into your system, plugs not needed. I got my EQ to work with aftermarket HU/AMP/Speakers, etc thanks to a few people here and I LOVE IT.

It looks like the factory amps were different.  With the EQ it has all 6 speakers coming off the amp.  W/o EQ only the front and door speakers off the amp. 

Do you have to swap the amp also?

Was the amp/w eq higher wattage??
