Help with my 92 merc 400E

[92400E]

So I picked up a 92 400E last year and the radio did not work? So A friend wired up a Pioneer head unit, but he only wired the dash speakers, and never finished the job, and moved away. So now I have just the dash speakers that I replaced the other day cuz one blew! So I need to wire up the doors and rears that are still stock and Also the Antenna is not wired! so all I have is the Ipod wired, that does not charge the Ipod so if it dies I got nothing! Some one told me I need to rewire the whole thing AHHHH I hope not? I also heard I might be able to tap into the doors and rears threw the fader in the center console? I have very basic audio experience, is this something I should try or should I leave it to a shop? The stock system is a becker deck with some stock amps in the trunk and I was told it is a confusing mess? I am just trying to run the stock speaker or basic upgrades and get the Antenna working, any input would be a big help!

Are you saying you want to replace your stock speakers? If so the easiest thing to do would be to run new wires from your Pioneer headunit to the doors. It will eliminate having to bypass the stock amplifier & really simplify things. It can sound challenging, but it's really not hard to route new wires into your door.
