Default *Alarm/Speaker question*

I got my 2 front speakers installed in December. They're Alpine Type R SPR-17LP. The deck is Alpine CDA-9856. I had my friend install them that works at Best Buy. They don't sound that good right now because he said it needs to be rewired, but I don't wanna do that yet until I get 2 speakers for the back seat area...and a amp. What do you guys recommend I do? I don't know anything about this so...
I also want to upgrade to a better alarm and I wanted your info on what brand alarm etc. I was thinking Clifford, Viper, or Python because they're made by the same company. Should I get a remote start? I have a M6 too...

i have a remote start on an m6, i just never used it on hills. i used it for over a year until i built the engine. before you shut the car off you press a button on the remote and then take the key out of the switch, the car runs until you shut the door. then it knows it out of gear. in SC no one installs them on a straight drive within a company, wired my own though.

What do you guys think I should do about the speakers? I have 2 front ones and I'm going to get 2 for the back...Should I have Best Buy rewire them or just get the amp and get it all done at once?b
