Sub & Amp w/ Stock HU

For some reason i bought an amp and a sub, yet... i do not want to change my Stock deck(ya i dont know what i was thinking at the time...one of those impulse/good deal decisions). Rather than going through the work of selling the two i'd rather try to use them in the car. How would i wired this up, if possible, and will it mess up the stock sound. What do i need to do this? I already know how to wire the power and the sub and all that, i just need to know what i need to do to get the deck to work with is since its not designed for this. Thanks Un-LuckyLad

well, if your amp has speaker level imputs, you're all set, just splice the rear speakers to those inputs and you're set. If not, you can get a like output convertor and connect the rear speakers to that, then the LOC's RCAs to the amp.
