when i first hooked mine up, before adding the touchscreen, i had to run a rca converter from the rear speaker wires, pain in the but, you have to splice your speaker wires, converter only cost about 20 bucks or so.

I hooked a set of tweeters, 2- 6X9 and 2 - 8 inch subs along with the factory door speakers.Now I am running 10 speakers 2 amps to the factory deck.
Sounds awsome.
I spliced into the front door speakers. The wires are in the kick panel on drivers and passengers side, real easy.
I than ran speaker wire to the trunk.
Hooked up a speaker input to RCA output convertor, then hooked that into a dual amp splitter to run one amp to subs and other amp to 6X9 and tweeters. The door speakers are just fed off the deck.
Didn` take long to hook up and bass is mint.
