[QUOTE="Tatsumi, post: 5927597, member: 610372"] Hey, I'm driving a 1995 Mercury Mystique that came equipped with the Ford Premium Sound System including the factory amp. A couple months back I replaced the 4 factory speakers and head unit. I just got a cheap amp/sub and am wondering if anyone knows how to get the amp hooked up to the speakers without rewiring them all. Here's the speaker output from the current amp.

[URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/pictures.php?id=9833"]http://www.sonicelectronix.com/pictures.php?id=9833[/URL] The head unit I currently have hooked up is the Sony Xplod CDX-GT300.
