The word "stock" in there scares me. Sounds like you are trying to use an OEM head unit or deck... If this IS what you are trying to do, you cannot bridge them! You must buy a small amplifier, either a mono amp, or a stereo amp with bridging capabilities. If you try to "bridge" a deck's outputs, you WILL FRY THAT DECK, so don't try it.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
