What to do... Ok, here's the deal. I had intentions of throwing my Kicker ZX420 amp in the car along with my kicker resolution components up front and some 6.5's in the sails. Well, I really don't feeling wiring up my amp because I'm a lazy *** lol.
Basically I just want to drop in some speakers and call it a day. The only upgrade I have right now is a Pioneer headunit which is throwing the signal through the stock monsoon stuff(obviously). I know the fronts are wired as a mid and tweeter...can I run my components that way? If not should should I just go with a good two speaker up front and maybe run some 2ohm subs in the sails?
What should I do/what CAN I do?

Yes, you can wire components using the separate factory wires. The Monsoon speakers in a Camaro are actually components - they're just mounted coaxially.
I think you'll be suprised how well it sounds if you just bi-amp the speakers like stock.
The monsoon head unit causes a bunch of distortion, and the speakers are of course weak. The amp itself is reasonably decent. Give it a shot you'll be suprised.
