to hook up your aftermarket amp here are your steps:

1) you need to run your pos battery wire from your battery to your amp. That goes to your amp, put that where it's labeled "B+" So you need to find a way to do that. Make sure you use a proper inline fuse too.

2) There is a "GRD" labeled on your amp. Make sure it is never smaller than the one above. This will be your ground wire, and most just bolt it to there seat belt bolt. But it needs to be drilled to the frame of the car.

3) There is another wire that needs to be hook up which is your remote wire, labeled "RMT" on your amp. Should be around 16awg wire size. One end of the wire goes into the "RMT" on your amp and the other taps into #2 in the above picture. This wire will turn the amp on when you turn on/off with the head unit.

4) RCA need to be hook up. You need to go buy an adapter

Uploaded with ImageShack.us (Got the picture from another guy on this forum)
Twists the gray/blk and the wht/blk together and tap that into slot #10 in the above picture. Now twist teh white and gray together and tap that into slot #3.

the rest should be self pretty easy let me know if you have anymore questions.
