Hi guys.... I am trying to find an inexpensive way to add BASS to my 2004 Excursion. I hate the idea of having a mile of wire branching off between amplifier, battery, head unit, subwoofer, crossover, etc! I want a STOCk look, and a STOCK setup to keep it simple. I want to keep my stock 6-disc in dash stereo (I love it). Does anyone know if the stock stereo has an RCA output for a subwoofer? Here's my idea....... some of you may LAUGH! Tell me what you think: In my house, I have a Sony subwoofer that is hooked up to my surround system. It has a built-in amplifier and is hooked up by only one RCA subwoofer input cord! It provides LOADS of bass yet it only cost me $99! I LOVE IT! I seems that it would be awesome to use this in-home subwoofer to add bass in my Excursion. If I were to add a decent AC-to-DC converter to my Excursion, I could "plug in" the Sony subwoofer to my Excursion for power. For it to work, though, I would need to find out if the Excursion stereo has an RCA subwoofer output slot. Does anyone know? Does anyone have any opinions or experience about this idea? If it works, I could have GREAT bass for less than $200!...and in a small box!... and keeping a stock look! THANK YOU for your help! Jarrett

Hear that about the sticking thing. Ate 4 of mine. Had to pull it out and completely take it apart to get them back! Ended up putting in a new Alpine head unit....sounds better too!

My good friend Steve did up a sweet set of subs and built stock looking enclosures for them,here's some pics of his audio system in his Excursion

At first I didn't see where he had the subs mounted, but then I saw the custom enclosures in the rear doors. Looks great, but he can't haul any 8ft 2x4's or any 8ft sheets of wood anymore!!

You mean that you can't fit in 2x4's or 4x8 sheets with the enclosures he has?
Sure doesn't seem like that much
