This is basically what your after, same as the SOS adapter but you need to modify it to suit you new setup

From what I gather, your going with the standard head unit, to aftermarket amp, to aftermarket speakers. You will need to change the speaker line outs to suit your amp, usually the line is converted to phono ends like in the SOS pics.
