Yes it is possible, I had it in mine.

You need to buy an adaptor with RCA out and piggyback it to the front speakers.

I got my adaptor from eBay for about £5.

What you have to do is just wire that into the speaker wire from the headunit, and then the rca to the amp its p**s easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes it will. Get some scotchlock clips and join onto front speaker wiring. Then you plug your RCA leads into the adaptor and other end into your amp.

You will need to find out which speaker wire is which (pos, neg etc)
