Default 2015 amplifier integration?

Hi All,

Just traded in my 2012 XLT for a 2015 Lariat. I was running an amp and subwoofer in my 2012 using a PAC OEMFRD24 for RCA output and remote, which worked flawlessly. Just wondering if I'll be able to use the same PAC in my 2015 which has nav, touchscreen and SYNC - but no Sony/premium audio, etc. I don't see a new PAC compatible with 2015's, so just wondering if anybody has had their radio out to see if this thing still fits or not.

Thanks!

No it will not work.

Thanks! Any idea if my factory radio happens to have RCAs, or whether there's a PAC-like option for amplifier integration?

if your amp has high level inputs and a crossover, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Just RCA inputs, but I do believe it has a basic crossover/EQ to at least filter out the high frequencies (used for a sub only). For some reason I've always felt better going RCA from the head unit rather than tapping in from a speaker; not sure if that's reasonable or not Thanks!

No RCAs and nothing made for the 2013,2014 or 2015
