Does anyone know what the Factory deck specs are for RMS power and what is the impedence of the speakers? I'm determining whether to have a stereo shop integrate the factory AMP or to use the deck power. I an external amp is normally preferred but like the new Alpine decks use amps put out 18W RMS at 4 Ohm's.

Also has anyone had aftermarket bluetooth integration into their cars? I'm seriously considering this because that would be sweet! Here's the link
