So basically I have a 94 gt with the 8 speaker setup. 2 speakers in the doors, 2 speakers in the back, and 2 tweeters. The factory amp that comes with the car blew, and now I want to replace all of the speakers and install a headunit. I took out the factory amp and am trying to wire all the speakers directly to the headunit(since the harness goes to the factory amp). But I do not want to blow the headunit since it is only supposed to power 4 speakers, not 8. So what should I do? Also, replacing the 8" speakers is kind of annoying. Has anyone replaced them with 6.5? Thanks for the help guys.

you should only have 4 sets of speaker wires that connected to your stock player. The tweeters and front speakers have splitters that split the highs and lows and come together in a box that then converts to just one set of speaker wires and the back speakers are the other set, and you only mention 6 speakers total not 8. You can swap out the 8" speakers for 6.5" but you would have to weld different mounts onto the car so that the speaker can screw into the mounts and hold it in place, which isn't worth it in my opinion. Anymore questions feel free to ask
