UPDATE: I used my wire tracer and confirmed that the drivers door speaker wire does lead to the frunk and the drivers dash speaker does as well. However, none of those lead to the dash and connect up with the head unit. I would assume that there was an aftermarket amp in the frunk at one time that all the speakers plug into along with the big sub. But now that is gone, I assume like others have said is to buy a small basic amp and reconnect things that way and run sound out via RCA cables to the amp then to the speakers.

Sound about right?

Yes. Or you could extend the wires and run the speakers off of the deck. You would have to get the speaker lead plug for the deck though. Easiest way is just get a cheap 4 channel amp. Cheapest is source the harness plug for the deck and extend the speaker wires.
