[QUOTE="Mudvayne25, post: 3260877, member: 579767"] I read the diagram wrong, theres only the midrange pair going to the front woffer and the tweeter pair. anyways I left the wiring alone, only changed the speakers and it sounds good low.. however when you turn it up the front speakers get distorted from the bass. I am nots ure why, my guess would be the amp isn't a high quality for the speakers so its sending too much lows to the front. I get what your saying, I really want to go aftermarket but here is my problem. the first issue I have is I kinda want to keep the stock head unit... for looks wise to keep a stock look. I also have something from PAC which is called the aux box... so I have my ipod hooked up though my stock headunit and it thinks its a cd changer, so I can control it through my steering wheel controls and everything. I love that feature. not to mention my car has the factory built in xm. and I know what you are saying, you can do all of that with an aftermarket deck, and I know this. however unless you have a touchscreen display, scrolling through the ipod is much more of a hassle than its worth.
