Wiring speakers to a 4 channel amp, just the door speakers and the rear speakers Options

[secra12]

Once i get my tweeter covers in the mail, im going to be rewiring my speakers to a 4 channel amp. Has anybody else here done this? I already have my Kenwood wired to 2 12" kicker comps in my trunk with a bettery powering an audiopipe mini amp in my trunk (yes my car runs off 2 batteries-stops my headlights from dimming). I have an 8" speaker in each door(idk the make/model as i got them from a friend that moved recently)and he also spliced in tweeters from the speakers. In the rear i have 2 sony explods installed (not sure of the size b/c the previous owner had them installed).

This will be my first attempt at wiring speakers and i have no clue really what im doing. Can anybody help?

I have already bought 16 gauge speaker wire and another set of rca cables. All will be wired to an older 4 channel Sony amp until i can afford a newer one.

Yes, you cut the already existing wires and connect to the ones you run from the amp.
If you splice the wire, the speakers will receive signal from both the stereo and the amp which is not good.

Use solder and heatshrink for some good outcome.

Thanks! Oh what wires do I need to cut?
