it would but not sound that great, plus it might take power away from speakers in the car.

Is the factory Amp not good enough to power new speakers?

What is the watt rating on the factory amp?

i would imagine like 15 watts/channel or something, enough to power new speakers but if you are looking for good sound quality i would go with a nice 4 channel amp
