Just wondering what all I needed to do this. I know I need some kind of converter, but what one and how do I use it?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I'm trying to put my Rockford T1 and amp on my stock deck. Its got steering wheel controls and 6 disk changer, so I don't feel like changing it out.

what you are looking for is a line output converter to convert the speaker level signal to an RCA signal. but you should check your amp first because alot of amps these days also have speaker level inputs. you'll also need an amp kit and a set of rca's . you should give us more info on what you want to do

Sorry again, lol.
I have a 95 Monte with all the stuff hooked up to an aftermarket deck right now, but it broke down so I bought a new car. I've got all the wireing and stuff. But I'll check the amp and see. If it has the inputs what do I need to do? Splice off the rear speakers and put it into that spot then run them back? And if it doesn't, how do I use the converter? Thanks again!!

all you need to do is splice the wires into the existing speaker wires. in your case the rear speakers would be easiest to tap. if your amp has speaker inputs all you need to do is run speaker wire from the speakers to the amp and make sure your ploarity is the same on both speakers or the two sides will cancel each other out.
even if you dont have these inputs the procedure is still pretty much the same except you will need to buy a line output converter. the converter will have wires coming from it that already look like speaker wires. you just tap these wires into your both rear speakers in the trunk making sure to keep the polarity the same for both speakers. after than you just need to run your RCA's from the converter to the amp and thats it

Well I was just looking at it today, and turns out I don't have speakers in the rear deck. They are in the back doors instead. So I think I'm just going to pay someone to do it instead.
BTW, my amp is a Rockford 500.1 BD. Do I need the converter?
Thanks!

I just looked on their site and it doesn't look like that one.
It looks like this one:
