Ok people how the heck do I get my rf, rr, lf and lr signal to run my aftermarket amp? If I tap into the wires after the JBL everyone is saying that it will blow up one of my amps and if I tap into the wires before the amp I will only get two channels and I need four. So what do I do??

Line Output Converter installed downstream from your stock amp.
It's that simple.
All you need coming out of your stock amp is the high-level front L&R and rear L&R signals for input to the LOC. You then have a low-level source signal that is variable between 0 and 9.5 volts that you can send to one more amps.

Hey thanks for the quick response. I have been told that if I use a converter (as a matter of fact I do have the conveter you mentioned but I haven't installed it yet) it will fry either my factory JBL amp or my aftermarket amp because of the amplified signal going to the converter and aftermarket amp.......
I have alread replaced everything. When I got the truck I took out the seats and carpet and ran all new wiring, new speakers including the tweeters, two 8" subs, an Alpine V12 amp and a Pyle DVD head unit.........
Now......I want to install my new Toyota Navigation unit E7006 but I guess I need the factory JBL amp to run with it. So yes I guess I need to tap after the JBL and hook up the LOC to the Alpine amp. I also cannot for the life of me find the grey plug (speed/reverse) that plugs into the back of the Nav unit. Did the 04 AC come with that plug?

No. I think the NAV option is on '05 and newer.
Ask on the board from those who know where the wiring is on '04's and older. You may have to get behind the instrument cluster to locate them.

No I was joking Brother! You have helped more than anyone here so far and I thank you very much! I still need to know where to tap into the Speed and Reverse wires though. I looked behind the gages and I found the Green/orange wire but I also found two Black/ yellow wires. Which one of the Black/yellow wires do I tap into?
Hey I think I might have tapped off of the factory amp in the wrong place. When you said install the LOC after the factory amp did you mean tap off of the harness that is in the truck (2004 AC) or the harness that plugs into the back of the unit? If I tap off the harness that plugs into the Nav unit I will only R and L, no front and rear ........................

No, the LOC is hooked to the Output of the amp --- Or the wires that go directly to the speakers from the factory amp. Not before the amp.
