    Does anyone know of a line out converter with the remote adjustment knob that will t into the factory harness without having to splice? I found the one off Amazon most people are using, but it doesn't have the knob.

    Thanks!

    You won’t get one with a knob unfortunately. Some very basic wire crimping and you can build your own for about $50

    Is there a known outlet to get the pigtails to make one? Or just buy both and make one out of it?

    Mr. destin meeks this is a really nice find. Why pay the $50+(Amazon) or the "tt" add a sub and/or amp harness? Couldn't we just cut the wiring in 1/2, add the extended wiring to/fro to the head unit?

    yes, you could. i just found this today so this will be my new suggestion for people. we'll have to get the wire colors sorted, but that will be easy

    I wish PAC wouldn't use that blue color, it makes their stuff look like it was stuffed into plastic electrical boxes for outlets and switches. It's the sole reason I stay away from their products. They need to make better LOOKING stuff IMO.

    Yeah it looks and feels extremely cheap. I always disassembled those LOC’s and bass knobs and kept some 3” 3:1 heat shrink on hand.
