I did some research on the topic. And, from what I've read, it seems the stock head unit in our cars send a pre-amp signal to the factory amp. So, theoretically, the line-out converter isn't even needed.
Just take your RCA's and splice them into the harness going INTO(not out of) your stock amp. This is the route I'm going to be taking in a few minutes, when I can find a wrench capable of breaking this strut tower bolt loose. I'll let everyone know how it works out for me. But, I may have saved a few people(including myself) a good $15!
