Default C6 plug & play amps?

Is there a list, or can we put together a list of amps that are plug and play in the C6? I'd like to keep my OEM head/NAV, and just beef up the amp and perhaps some of the speakers.

Does such an animal even exist?

Are there amps that are close, or adapters that make it easy to put in other amps without massive headaches?

I'm really looking for a way to add a little more oomph to the system and perhaps clean up the sound a little, without tearing into the system and spending a fortune.

I can't believe some enterprising soul hasn't come up with a kit, or simple plug and play setup to sell to all the lazy people like me that would like to improve the system, without going to a custom installer or spending a FORTUNE doing it.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

any amp can be added but plug and play not quite... for starters more power = more current flow = heavier power cable

I'm more concerned about the odd speaker config that we have.
