Did you just use the built in amp? Stock speakers? How does it sound? I see this unit is lower power, like 22x4 rms
Probably he used the built in amp. Stock speakers probably sense he did not say otherwise. Compared to the stock putting out around 9 watts the stock speakers will sound better with 22 watts which is pretty standard for most head units for RMS.You do not have to solder just makes a more secure connection than crimp connectors IMO. I recommend the metra axxess for controls. you will need to cut three wires from the factory harness and wire them to the axxess.
