Default Sc400 factory amp bypass?

Ok so im tired of not having any music in my car. Factory amp is fried and I cant afford a oem replacement or to have an aftermarket wired in. is there a kit I can use with an aftermarket headunit to bypass the amp and run off the head unit amp instead?

Its the nakamichi system. And ive seen a post for a pioneer system and it said it may not work for the nak systems.

keep in mind if you remove the factory amp you will not get very much power in your speakers. think about 1 watt going into the factory amp and it turning it into 10 watts. if you cut out the factory amp you will loose %90 of the sound.

also keep in mind that factory amps will often take 4 channels and turn them into 10 for all the satellite speakers. your tweeters are often crossed over in the amp, meaning that the amp filters out frequencys the tweeters cannot handle.

either replace the amp with another amp and be sure to make sure all speakers are crossed over after the replacement.. or buy a decent pair of headphones.
