Whats wrong with the Monsoon amp that you want or need to bypass it? It'll work great for running the factory speakers, and then you can run your amp for your subs.

If you're wanting to run seperate amps for lows and mids, highs the easiest way would be to dissconnect the amp, hook up a line output convertor so you can have RCA's for the amps and then hook the speakers up to the amps.

Im not sure about the 93's but I know for my 01 I had to biamp the speakers in order to get them to sound right.

If you have a hard time finding a way to route power through the firewall you'll find a nice gromet right under the PCM.

You are only running the 4" hatch speakers? That has to sound brutal. There is a whole writeup on here about how to bypass the Monsoon amp...
