I read that Grand Prix's with the premium sound have a monsoon amp a low-pass crossover that supplies the 6x9's. If my car has this system, then I want to tap into those low-pass wires to feed sound to my new amp and 13" woofers. So yeah can you guys let me know if my car actually has the monsoon and crossover and if I do where it is because I think I have it and I cant find it. Thanks in advance!
    The monsoon amp is in the trunk, right under the 6x9's... where the lights are for the trunk, very center. It's just a black box, mine has the monsoon logo on it. Im not sure if earlier models of the monsoon had the speaker front and center in the dash, but mine has that.

    Yeah I can't find any box like that I guess the pre-2004 models don't have monsoon. How should I set up the amplifier to get sound then? My amp has RCA and Hi-Level inputs

    you would have to wire the amp in with power from battery a ground remote and then wire the speakers into the amp and use rcas to the back of an aftermarket deck or use a line out converter if your using the factory hu, just as if you were hooking up subs
