Aftermarket Sub and Amp wiring

I am going to put a new sub and amp in my car and it has the sun and sound package. I will need new wiring correct? Should I just take out the old amp, sub and wiring or will the wires there be helpful to me in any way?

My shop left the factory wireing alone and ran new wires for my sub. The SSL sub uses proprietary couplings which would be better of left there if you decide to go back to stock later.

It is my daily driver car now so I will have it for years. Never go back to stock on this one. So new wires?

I would say so. The stock amp is under the driver seat. Why bother pulling out the stock wire? I doubt you'll want to mount your aftermarket amp there. Just run new ones from where you mount your new amp and tuck the stocker out of sight.
