Question stock speaker wires and competition deck not matching up

I have a '98 Z28 which came stock with a Monsoon stereo system. I recently purchased the Sony MEX-5DI deck. The new deck comes only with RCA outputs for the speakers. How do I connect the stock speakers to the RCA outputs of the the Sony deck?

If it only came with RCA's then there's probably no built in amp in the deck. You need to power it with external amps. Looks like you'll be spending more money.
