Check with local, JL Audio authorized stereo shops in your area. That's what I did and got a really great deal on mine.

If I buy the JL Audio 400/4 and the FARK adapter will it work with replacing my current amp on my 2013 Camaro with MyLink? Also, will the quality of the sound improve?

It doesn't plug into the radio so the radio makes no difference. Other than that, the BA system in a 2013 is nearly identical to the 2010s. Until GM changes the amp connectors on us or ditches the BA system completely, our kit will continue to be compatible.
Yes

The sound will dramatically improve, but the speakers can't take too much power so don't go too overboard on the amp unless you plan on replacing them shortly.

******** has an install video where he pulls the factory amp and plugs into a replacement amp and you get a great representation of the difference in sound quality.

The amp makes a big difference, but the speakers still suck. Replacing the amp makes them suck much less though.

Well........the left side of my BA stereo system are now intermittently going in and out on me. I'm in outside sales so I drive ALOT and I love my tunes! I'm thinking it is the BA amp crapping out....so it is the perfect time to get the JL XD400/4 amp and ********s 5G Fark harness. Just bought all my goodies today on line and can't wait till they get here and install them.

$229 for the amp from Amazon/Audio Craze and $80 to ******** for the harness and the mount. I already had the sub harness. Check out ********.com......Steve is the best! I have used him for all my vehicles!
