Does anybody know if the Stock stereo for a 2003 Protege LX has RCA outputs?

No it doesn't. Only the Pro's with the Kenwood MP3 players do. You can tap in to the speaker wires with a PAC RCA converter. You get those from Crutchfield or any other shop that sells car audio.

Yeah i had looked into it just in case if it didnt. But know i ask what kind to i need? I plan on putting only 1 10' and a 200 watts amp. thats all for now. and i wasnt sure how difficult it was to install since i plan on putting it behind the stock unit.

YOu can tie it in to the rear speaker wires I believe. Go to www.crutchfield.com and do a search on "PAC" and it will come up. They may not have it on the site unless you do a search since it is not as popular of an item as some of their other stuff that they sell.

yes you can tie into the rear speakers using a line out convertor. if you need the rear speaker colrs i can give those to you.

I was told that the best way to install the converter was to put it behind the stereo unit because it filters the signal better since it already goes through all the interference from the speakers all through the car to the unit. Would it still be best to wired it near the speaker instead of the stereo??
