Just yesterday i bought a 88 lincoln towncar and it had a factory (i believe) amp in the trunk powering the speakers and we replace the factory am/fm radio and the add-on cd player under the dash with my aftermarket deck and we ran all new speaker wires from the head unit to the speaker harness in the trunk. it was a hassle but works great. just bypass the P.O.S. factory amp and u should be good to go.
