You will likely want to bypass the factory amps. It is fairly easy these
days to buy a head unit with plenty of power. Otherwise you would need an
adapter that would reduce the outputs of your new radio down to preamp level.
When I bought a new head unit from Crutchfield they advised bypassing the
amps and gave me a wiring harness to do that. Otherwise they would have sold
me a $50 adapter to work with the factory amp.
