[nipplethewhale]

I have a subwoofer that has a male connector and a car that has a female audio jack. if i plug my subwoofer into it, will it work? or will i need to follow online instructions to properly install the subwoofer?

you will need to get an amp that will power the subwoofer. the amp will have all the connections you need to plug the subwoofer in.

So i plug the amp into the female jack and the subwoofer into the amp?

no, you need rca wires from yor head unit. if you have a stock head unit. you cen get a in line rca convertor and make rcas from stealing he signal from oneof your speaker wires. then ru the rca and the remote wire from the adapter to the amp, rca wires to rca in remote wire to remote wire terminal. then 4 guage power wire and ground . power wire from battery terminal with inline fuse 1 ft away from battery. power wire runs to power terminal on amp. ground wire ground from amp to metal chassis . speakr wires from amp to sub . thats the jist if you want to tech lmk. can just plug a sub into jack on radio.
