stock amp troubles :(

im not very firmiliar with car audio but i decided i was going to do the double din conversion, add a mono amp, a 4 channel amp, and a sub, and keep my interior speakers stock for now... but when i intended to remove the stock bose amp and take out the speaker wires and plug them into a new amp the damn thing is wireing harness' insted of speaker wire... is there any way to hook up the new amp without running new wires?

just hack the harness.....use the existing stock speaker wire to connect your amp to the stock speakers.....

do a search on here and there is a wiring diagram for the color-coded speaker identification....

Dude if you're asking a question like that maybe you might want to have a professional do the job!

If you don't want to hack your existing OEM sires apart, you can still use one of two methods to connect your aftermarket products:

1) Use a speaker harness adapter like the one here: http://www.cardomain.com/item/MET727400

2) Use automotive T-Taps to tap into the existing OEM wires and run your own normal speaker cable from them.

If you do hack don't hack too close to the plug, You may want to reconnet the harness in the future.
