There is no need to run new wires to install an after market head unit. And yes, You can use the stock amp to run the speakers. (the bestbuy "installer" who said you have to use a new amp is wrong, Or he gets a kickback for selling amps) The speakers in the door are 6 1/2 with a tweeter. The speakers behind the seats are 6 1/2 subs. The Crossfire stock system only uses one set of line level outputs from the head unit to the amp. The amp splits the signal and sends it to the correct speakers. If you do a search you will find all the info you need to hook up a stereo in your Crossfire. You will need to switch the red and yellow wires and the amp turn on (blue) wire is pink on most wiring harness for Crossfire/VW.
