Dont kno how to do it personally, but it can definately be done at any audio shop, they use a converter of some sort that uses the speaker wires to connect to the deck rather than RCA's. I had it done to my WQ before i decided to change the headunit.

As Ben said you'll need a line level converter or two if you want front and rear. If you're doing it yourself the wiring diargram on here will help make sure you get the phsaing right. You'll also need a remote turn on for the amp. You can either take a feed off an accessories line so that it turns on automatically when you turn the car on or you can use a permanent power line and put in an inline switch so you can choose to have it on or off.
