You'll need a line output convertor. Basically it taps into the speaker signal and converts it to a low-level signal which you then carry to the amp through a set of rcas. They're pretty cheap and easy to install.

so with one of these line output convertors, i can just strip the part of the stock pseaker wires, splice and use electrical tape to the convertor? any help would be greatly appreciated...also would there be a way so i dont have to splice any wires so i can disconnect everything in the future without problems.
