Question
i recently just bought a 12000 watt pioneer amp, L5 solo baric system and i plan on installing it myself. Can i install this system with my stock cd reciever? and my other question is i also have a pioneer deh-1500 cd reciever that i got from a friend and im wanting to know if its compatible with the wiring of my 1998 ford mustang.

Thank you for the help

Answer
Yes, to all of the above.

But, you must have the right connecting cables and wiring harnesses, etc.

I suggest you do some basic research for what you need at crutchfield.com and installer.com for the items you will need and the connection schemes.

If you get the wiring for the mustang and the owners manuals for the amps/head units, etc. it is just a matter of knowing how to connect it all up.

Here is a multipage doc on your mustang that may be very helpful to you in designing your installation:
