Can you change out the deck in these cars, and still use the factory Speakers and Amps???

Or is it like the 99-04 models were you have to change out everything??

Looking at this one right now...........

if you have the base stereo you will have no problems with just switching it out, if you have the shaker 500 or 1000, a couple other items have to be added which best buy sells or you have to swap out the speakers and amp
