Hi there,

I have decided to use my aftermarket stereo instead of the Audi one. I have plumbed it in only to find out that I only have the 2 front speakers working. With the original stereo in I had 4 speakers , tweeters and a sub in the rear working. I looked at the back of the original stereo an it seams that there is only 2 speaker wires. How can I use my aftermarket stereo and have all the speakers working ? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks,

Matt

Sorry to ask load of questions,

it will work ur sub aswell as all rear is from the amp
and unless ur oem said bose on start up or says bose on ur speaker covers then u have the normal rear amped system
