yes u can

u will need to find the speaker wires and cut them

then use
a an amp that supports high level inputs ( speaker wires)
b use line level converters to change to rca plugs

which all amps should use and be the best way

but quality can be down

WOW mate.... that sounds like a matter of national importance!!! hahaha :D

Anyway.....

Yes you can..... AU HU's don't have RCA outs, so either buy an amp with speaker inputs, or buy line level converters to convert a speaker signal to an RCA input.

Both are an acceptable solution if all you want is a bit more power, but your signal quality will be diminished!

pretty much yes

u can go to s**t and buy a amp wiring kit

for the remote amp on use the +ve of the head unit so the amp is on only when the head unit is on
