trying to add sub/amp to 2000 TL

http://edesignaudio.com/product.php?code=78
ive never done work with the system in my car, and will probably get a professional installation, since i heard it was complicated....but i want to get the wires and adapater, because im sure i can find it cheaper than Bestbuy.
Anyone know what wires/adapters are needed to hook up these parts with a stock system/HU?

Its very easy to install. like said above (depending on the size amp) any where between 8 and 4 gauge power wire, you will need a ground wire a line converter to hook up to the sub line signal, and rca wires (6-8 foot depending on where you mount the amp.

just wondering what length of wires to provide the installer with
ive been told that i should get
4 gauge ground and power wire
line converter from rear speakers (dont need rca wires since i'm getting the input from the line converter)
a remote wire
18 gauge speaker wires to get from amp to sub
ive seen this before in another forum, but cant seem to find it. Thanks for all the help!

www.knukonceptz.com has really good amp wiring kits that come with everything at good prices. I haven't wired the TL for a sub, but it took about 19 feet to run a power wire from behind the front passenger headlight to the behind the rear driver's seat in the trunk of an SUV.
And like what someone else said, the Line Out Converter has wires on one end and RCA jacks on the other so you'll still need the RCA cables. I'm sure someone else can chime in about where the sub's amp is, but you should just tap the signal before the sub's amp so you don't have to buy a LOC. Those LOCs are such a ripoff.
