Default OEM amp went out..

My stock amplifier has gone out and I have a couple amps laying around the house.. I was wondering how I would go about hooking an aftermarket amp to the stock stereo. Any suggestions for decent aftermarket double din video screens?

How are you liking the interface? im thinking about getting the sony xav 68bt but im not too comfortable with the thought of ditching out 300$ plus for a stereo

Swap out the factory rear speakers for some nice 6x9's . Use carpeted MDF oval adapters when fitting in factory speaker holes and fix with a couple of screws from underneath parcel shelf in boot
Cost effective mod

My HU is a Pioneer AVH 3600 DAB 4x55w
