There seem to be two choices.

One is the PAC OEM-1 which is what I (Non-bose though) and a few others are running. It's okay, but the factory bass attenuation is still present, which is annoying.

JL Audio just came out with a new product called the Clean Sweep, which is supposed to do the same thing only better. There is one guy running one and he loves it. A little pricey though. Do a search for it, it was a pretty recent topic.

im PRETTY sure the bose stuff runs at a differnt ohm load so its not going to work correctly with a line out converter...

Use the PAC AEOM24, there is one for the bose, one thing which was odd is some directions said to hook it up at the back of the center concole near the factory amp, apparently this is not the best option, you want to hook it up behind the stock headunit, its all plug and play so its very simple. I just moved mine up to behind the head unit from the center concole spot and although i havent been able to hook my system up to the new location i heard it makes a major difference. Something about when its hooked up at the bose amp when the volume gets louder the factory bose pulls out certain freq's but when its hooked up hehind the actual head unit before the BOSE amp it doesnt.
