Default Replacing Infinity System

I know this has probably been asked by far too many times, but im going to have to ask it again. (I searched but had a hard time finding results for the second gen) I want to replace my badly blown stock infinity system, kinda on a budget too cause i have to pay for gas in the 5.9 pig. lol Should i go component, or coax? And i have heard you have to do extra wiring when it comes to the infinity system, so whats the process. I will let you know a aftermarket deck is already installed, and i plan on installing my kenwood sub and amp into the truck.

Need to bypass the amps for the door speakers. I think that's about the only major thing you have to worry about.

easiest way and quickest? run new speaker wire from the deck to each of the speakers since you already have a aftermarket deck and run your rca cables and your power wires and be done with it.

That sounds like more work than just figuring out the factory wiring

if you just change speakers in the doors and rear and use factory wire yeah itll work but youll be able to tell.
