Default What should i do???

I just ordered my amp today and 4 gauge wire. Soon i will order my Kappa components or coaxs (please check out my post in the audio forum and vote!!) My sound system is bone stock right now.

I'm gettin the install done at ultimate electronics. 110$$ to install the deck and run 4 gauge in my car. Pretty good right?? BUT they won't do the install unless i get new speakers (which is not a problem) and won't run new speaker wires which will probably cost me more than the deck and 4gauge install!!!

The components are 85rms and coax are 55rms. I've heard many say that running new wire is necessary but also heard that its not and the stock wires will do just fine. I can't afford to cough up an extra 100 for the install + about 100' feet of wires. 12-16 gauge??? What should i do??? What gauge is in the door speakers now?? And how can i convince them to do the install?

You could take the wires from the deck and just run them all straight to where the factory amp is and splice the wires that were from the amp to your speakers. No wires to run.

I had a new deck installed at Ultimate in my 96, and they didn't require me to put new speakers or wire in.
