yes there is a problem. The factory woofer is an 8 ohm speaker, and full range driver you buy to replace it will be a 4 ohm driver since 95% of car audio is 4 ohm and full range. If you put a 4 ohm speaker in your amp will either burn up or pop a fuse. If you have replaced your factory radio then you will just need to bypass the factory amp which is coverd on page 2 of my cardomain page.
