As far as I know...Most if not ALL factory systems do NOT come with Low Level Pre-outs (RCA's)..If you want to use your factory stereo, you'll need a LLC/LOC to splice from your factory wiring so you'll have the RCA's.

nope.

Is this the Bose system?

If so, there is little or nothing you can do, short of replacing it.

The Bose systems (we call them Blose over at www.corvetteforum.com), are a real pain.

Internally, they use a wack 1 ohm stable amp, as such, you can't even upgrade the crappy drivers Bose uses... ick.

And the Honda factory drivers are junk, too.

Don't use adaptors, the line level converters are pigs. They do nothing but create noise.

Take care.

Kinda of topic but...
Does any one have their Stock Head unit 98-01 the dualdin one if so how much would you part with yours for?
To answer your question nope no RCA jacks and if you do buy a converter for high to low output buy a good one dont buy the 9.99 one it sucks, it will have a lot of noise static.

I've got mine sitting under my bed. Don't know how much it's worth but I used it for all of 3 months before I had cash to upgrade. I don't know but I think I'm going to put it back in when I sell the car and sell the Kenwood in there now. The stock CD player can't be worth more than 50-70 bucks.
