So,

I'm moving cross country in a few months and decided that my current setup in not good enough. So I droped some cash and am getting a new HU and rear speakers.

Panason CQ-C8400U
and
Front Polk EX-365's
Rear
Infinity Kappa 62.5i

Here is my Q. Do I pull new wire? Or keep the factory stuff? Or is it 6 to one 1/2 doz. to another?

just keep the factory stuff, it probably won't make much of a difference unless you are running an external amp to your mids, then i would get new wire.

Im running a similar setup on stock wiring and its allright I guess, I should get an amp for my 6x9s though.

well its not much more to get better wires and it will help a little esp if you have an amp. If you have the time it could be worth it.

not worth it unless what you have is hacked up... if you went with a more powerful external amp, it's worth it...

it is hard as hell to run the new wires into doors. i have done it, and it is pain in the ass.

yeah unless you're getting an amp or you are going to be stripping the car down it's not really worth it to upgrade yet but if you do decide to do it get at least 16 gauge
