There should be a diagram entitled "adding and amplifier to a factory stereo" in the owner/install manual of the high to low convertor. You need to signal tap some audio signal from your front or rear stock speakers in the car and those wires need hook up to the high to low convertor's input side. From the convertor you connect RCAs that go to your amp. In other words find your rear speaker wires and hook them to your adapter then hook up the rca wires

I have an 04 Nissan Altima I want to keep the stock radio but want to hook up an amp to it. There are no RCA hook up on the back of the radio. Please help, how can I do this?

You need a high/low converter. The converter will connect to two speaker wires and, covert that high signal to a low signal to run the amp. The converter will have RCA outputs for the amp. You will also need an amp turn on wire. The accessory wire (switched 12 volts) from the radio will serve this purpose.
Since you are already behind the radio; the accessory wire you need is purple in color. Left front speaker (+) is blue/white,(-) is blue/red. Right front speaker (+) is white/black, (-) is blue/black. You can use the signal from these two wires for the amp.

How do i install an interfire IB2400c amp?

Hello blown1914,

That appears to be a good amp and should power your subs with no problem.

You will want to install a line-level converter to your stock speaker outputs and use RCA cables to the amp. Here's a link to SonicElectronix line-level converters. The PAC SNI-35 is OK if your stock radio has a remote turn-on lead. If not, you should probably look at the PAC TRUNK-LOC. It still a 2-channel line output converter but also includes a trigger output to power on your amp.

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/cat_i331_line-out-converters.html

I tried Interfire's web site to see if they have a downloadable manual for your IB2400c amp. I could not find it, so it may be that it is no longer in print or no longer available.

You may want to go to their support page (link attached) and send them an email.

http://www.interfireaudio.com/contact.html

Hope this helps.

Subs not as loud as they should be plz help

RCA output level and speaker level output have different voltages and currents. The problem you are describing is common to folks trying to connect an OEM dash unit to an aftermarket amp. If your amp has speaker level inputs, try wiring to those......best bet..buy a new head unit, it'll sound better...louder and cleaner.

Replace 2005 Nissan altima stereo receiver

Try radio shack, or stereo sales/installation place for ready to go plug adapter. For a few bucks, it saves headaches, and butchering the wiring in case you want to re-install old one later when trading in or selling the car.

This commonly happens when the ohm load is too low. Double-check the wiring to confirm that the speakers are wired properly.
