Default Factory amps

Is it easy and/or possible to wire in subs to the factory amps?

I have two JL W0 12" subs that I want to install. I have a Punch 400 watt amp waiting, but I don't have much cash to play with at the moment. I got a couple citations to pay <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley19.gif border="0">

Possible? Yes. Advisable? Not really.

You'll want to put some sort of low pass crossover on the signal. And when you start adding speakers your changing the impedence to the circuit. I don't know that the stock amps are designed to run at a different impedence. You might end up cooking the amp.
