I am buying a 06 impala soon and i dont want to change the HU if i dont have to, is it possible to keep good signal from this with like a rca modulater and a eq. maybe? and some line drivers? Its a 06 Impala SS with the upgraded sound system already.. so it is prolly a halfway decent hu i would think... do they come with a rca maybe ::crosses fingers:: i never seen one that did but i havnt seen a stock HU from any car newer then like 02 or so

There hasn't been a stock head unit made to date with RCA outputs, no questions asked.

Change the head unit...stock is pure crap unless you've paid 3k+ for it as an option alone.

If you go pioneer or alpine, they make adaptors so you can use the stock steeringwheel controls for the audio

Probably not.. unless you can find a way to wire an FM modulator with a controller into it.. or hardwire it into the correct cd changer plug for your aftermarket head unit (but I don't know if that would work because usually every wire is a switching wire in the harness and doesn't control a specific function).
