If you have the Bose system then all speakers are separately amped so you need the PC9-410 (RCA input) or PC9-408 (speaker input).
Check the subwoofer in the boot, if it has two 4" drivers with a black front then you have the Bose system, if it has a single 6" driver with a metal front then it is non-Bose.
