you need to buy a line out converter which will turn your speaker leads into a rca pre out while still allowing all 4 speakers to work. its not the greatest sound quality but its your answer.
you can do it in under 2 minutes with T-taps. cc can do it but when they do have them install it behind the head unit not in the trunk. this way if you do buy a new head unit the rca are already run to the dash and you dont need to pay twice to have an ampkit install.
its a simple way to splice in to a wire one has teet with a female socket the grips the wire that has the signal you want the other is a male piece that you crimp the wire you want spliced in to the signal into

here is what you want to do:
1. run power wire from battery to amp (trunk?)
2. run ground wire from amp to car chassis
3. run wire tapped into a 12v wire that turns on/off with car, like the power wire of the cigarrette lighter plug thing, to the amp "turn on"
4. use a line converter and tap the rear speaker wires and run that to the amp for signal
5. connect amp to subs, put fuse in power wire, and you are all set
