yep ,,,, Buzz and I are right now going over the best way to configure his system, so that the fairing speakers and saddlebag lid speakers each get the full 125w RMS per channel X 4 ,,,,,,
THEN the rear trunk-pod speakers will run off the rear channels of the stock Harley radio ,,,, so that the trunk can be taken off anytime without affecting the rest of the audio system ,,,,,,,
AND to make sure that it is ALL plug-n-play for ease of installation ,,,,,,

I'm assuming you're referring to the 12 FLHTK
I thought the J&M 4 channel amp was a plug and play setup for 4 speakers? If not, then simply tap (don't cut off) into the rear outputs of the stock headunit for your rear inputs to the amp leaving your stock wires in place for your rear pod speakers. If you wire the rear speakers (both the pods and the lids) in series, you'll increase the impedance load to 4 ohms which will effectively cut your power output on the rear channels of that amp to about 100w per channel, then divide that by 4 so 50w per rear speaker. My suggestion is leave the pods on the stock head unit.
you can either cut and solder your connections for rear amp inputs from the stock rear outputs or you can use the or the connectors
