a regular one will work, you need to hook it up after the amp and you need one that handle a decent amount of power,     depending on the car though some bose systems are a pain

You probobly need a special one because of the so called Bose eq on the speakers. You usually find special line convertors for your vehicle that bypass the bose eq.

No harm in trying, it will most like degrade the sound quality that's all or it may not work at all because of the low level outputs of the OEM deck.

well i might go try that then, i actually ordered this one https://www.valcoelectronics.com/caudio/lineout.htm the FAI2 model but its on backorder for a week but im so anxious to put it in. This guy with the same car as mine said i should be fine if i buy a normal line out converter that has adjustable gains on it.

ask for a PIE differential converter, they are designed to work with Bose and non-Bose systems....
