How can I connect a self powered sub that only has low input rca connectors?

LOC (line output converter) will take speaker level output ant turn it into pre-amp inputs. Not the best solution for sound but works fine.

Is the car amplifier located in the rear right side of the trunk?
Do you know if that amplifier would have low output jacks that i could use?

There is a writeup here where someone installed a sub and tapped the line inputs before the factory amplifier - I would look there

Left rear attached to the sub enclosure with the B&O and no outputs. You’ll have to tap in high level with a LOC.

^ Well, I thought there were line levels to tap, but UNBROKEN sure is the person to ask, so I certainly remembered incorrectly.
