Default Speaker wiring

What is the best way to wire the two pod speakers into my system? I have a 4 channel amp running a pair of lid speakers and a pair of fairing speakers. I would like to splice in the tour pack speakers and when I remove the tour pak the speakers would disconnect at the stock plugs under the seat. Where and what wiring sequence would be best? This is a 4 ohm amp. Thanks for any help.

1. Is the amp two and 4 ohm compatible?
2. Are all the speakers 4 ohm?

If it's the set up you have in your signature. You are running all two ohm speakers and won't have the ability to run an extra set in parallel.
