new radio, factory amp

my problem is that i got a new pioneer deck for my 92 4runner and it has the factory amp in it. I was wondering what wire harness would be the best to come out of my amp and go to my radio, because its a 15 pin plug. I have done research and i have found that some people say that you have to jump wires and stuff for the amps to working on the two back speakers.

You can probably go to a stereo shop and buy a PAC adapter or something similar but honestly you are probably better off just removing the amp and bypassing the wiring and directly connecting your new deck to the speakers.

Either run all new wires or at least new wires to the factory amp location and then splice into those.

The amp in the Pioneer deck would probably outperform the factory one in every regard.

and no, you dont have to bypass of cross any of the wires in order to get the amp to work... if you dont wanna deal with the hassle of ripping it out, then just hook it up...

forget the factory "amp". My friend has an alpine 750w amp for his door speakers and a 12'' sub.

Im just runnin my door speakers off of the decks power and i have a kicker mono block amp for my 2 10s. Still sounds really good
