Does my stock BOSE headunit have this?

I have a 94 Touring, Does the Headunit have RCA Cables attached to it? (to wire up an Amp)
Is the remote wire labeled on the wire coming from the headunit? Plus, Im getting static from just the rear right bose sub. am I right to assume a bad connection?
thanks.

Thanks for the input.
So 1. Ill have to get that RCA connection thing
2. Ill have to find out which wire is the remote wire (MORE HELP PLEEZE?)
3. Start taking apart Bose Speaker to find bad connection.

You really don't want to hook an amp up to a bose head unit.

Consider upgrading the head unit to one compatible with Bose speakers.
Then you have the choice to use it with the bose speakers or your choice of aftermarket speakers and amps.

The amp wire is 1J on the 12 pin connector.
I don't recall the color.

Your static could be due to the bose head unit, the sub amp or a sub speaker.
Does the noise vary with volume level or is it a constant static?
Has your stock wiring been tampered with (by previous owner etc.)?

If you want me to email you a diagram and provide more info on upgrading your head unit just PM me.

Great info.
first, the static in the rear sub speaker is constant and is on wether the radio is on of off. It seems to happen with slight bumps in the road.
As for the headunit, I really didnt want to upgrade it at all. I already had the Sub and Amp and despite what people say I like the Bose sound (without the rear hatch seperation panel it sounds good) I was just going to get one of those RCA adapters (hi input to RCA adapter). But what are the negatives to doing this? I dont understand why it would be bad to hook up an amp and sub to the stock bose headunit.

I had that static thing too, I traced it back to the two antenna connections, I believe the rear defroster antenna causes it.

Ahh! thanks for the info.
So I need to check to see if the antenna connection is loose? how does the rear defroster interfere exactly.
