Dont use factory from another car and DONT use Bose. Especially if its from another vehicle. Bose likes to put 1 ohm speakers in their factory setups (at least on newer cars) and unless you have a 1 ohm stable amp or wire the speakers in series you'll be looking at a blown amp.

Just upgrading the speakers will make a big difference. Just remember, they will NOT be louder, just more clear.
