    Hello, I'm new to this page, I have a Tacoma with JBL "premium" sound and I would like to know how I can connect a rca connector to get a signal from the stereo for an amp.

    Your JBL, already has an amp. JBL system in your truck is very tricky on up grading. There is a few threads on what can be done to upgrade. Search for them, using search bar.

    I want to send signal to the speakers I couldn't get a signal from them so I would close a cycle, I don't know if you understand me.

    No I don't. You can pick up a signal from your door speakers or from your sub currently behind the passenger side rear seat to feed the line in of the amp to power more speakers or a sub...

    Are you saying your current speakers don't work?

    Oh look, another mod....
    The 2016 Tacoma's did not come with JBL stereo's. I'm guessing you added this after you got the truck. If that's the case, it's not just plug-n-play. Other modifications have to be made.

    I'm also upgrading my JBL system... My plan is to use a sound control LC2 to grab both channels to the sub. Then get a 5 channel amp with either bare wire to RCA or high level input. I'm gonna wait to upgrade my mids and highs but I'll throw a new sub in soon.

    They work, I think I could connect a loc to the plug that comes out of the amp for the speakers, won't it damage the jbl amp?

    The outputs of the JBL amplifier are processed and band limited. It’s not as simple as grabbing speaker outs and integrating aftermarket equipment. To do it correctly you will need something like the AmpPRO.

    You can find a lot more about this topic by searching the A/V forum.
