RCA preamp outs? on Pioneer T1-8180
This is an easy one. I want to install an amp and subs in my 2009 XB.
1. Does the Pioneer T1-8180 have an RCA preamp out on the back of it?
2. Is it worth the trouble taking out the HU to install the RCA cable or should I tap into an existing speaker wire and install one of those adapters (I forgot the name of the device)?
I appreciate the help.

You should tap into the rear left and right speaker leads behind the radio if it does not have RCA outputs on it. I say this instead of a speaker location because it will save time if you ever swap the deck, you'll be glad the RCA wires are already behind the radio. You need a Line-Output converter. Most of them are adjustable. Most retail establishments will charge between $25 and $30 for it. Good luck.

The T1-8180 is the HU that came with my 2009 XB. I believe it is the base stock HU. I appreciate the answer. Looks like I need to get a line output converter. No problem I put one in my Highlander, it wasn't to difficult.
