if running off the headunit, it will cook the headunit. If running off an amp, it will run at 2 ohms, so make sure the speakers and amp can cope with that.

In order to run a second speaker you will need to run it like the same way you do for a sub, but instead of connecting the speaker wires to a sub, this would be to a second set of component speakers. You will need to run an earth, live, remote wire and then insert aux leads into the back of the headunit so the power is coming from the amp & not all from the headunit.
