Depends on how you wire it. I don't know enough about how the stock wiring is setup to know.

If you take two, 4 ohm speakers and wire them in parallel you get a 2ohm load to the amp. So it pulls more power and isn't an issue as long as your amp is rated for that load.

The two same speakers wired in series put an 8ohm load to the amp.


That said, I'm just going to wait for the OEM Audio+ setup to be available for 2nd gens. The full kit, not just the front speakers.
