Is it possible to hook up a sub and amp to the stock Alpine system in a Lincoln LS?

Question:
I just bought a 2000 Lincoln LS V8, and was wondering if i could get some harness or if the stock radio has the audio outs that i need to hook up the cables and the remote wire....i don't believe it does, but i figure i'd find out before i start tearing it apart or buying a new head unit - as the Alpine premium sound isn't half bad - just not quite enough.

Answers:

when i put a coupler on my cb radio the swr meter shows 0 but the striaght anteena shows 1.5 on the swr?

wire the (+) straight to the battery
ground the (-)
the remote to the amp goes to any acc fuse block so that it turns on when you turn your key
your going to need a RCA converter
hook up your rear speaker wires (-) to (-) and (+) to (+) or they will cancel eachother out to the converter and your RCA wires to your amp
it will work fine but it will never sound as good as if you just got the head unit
also the head unit will be less trouble to wire since everything is color coded

When making a vented box is all you have to do is cut holes and add port tubes?

Not that I am aware of, but if you could the stock head unit wont power the sub, and you wont get that uuumf you are looking for, it will probably sound really flat unless you have a good amp.

I paid 137 dollars to have a amp cd player and 2 12's installed in my cadi.?

of course... either via rca's or off the rear speaker outputs.
