Wiring Help

Sorry for the stupid questions but i dont want to screw up. I have a 600 watt, 2 channel amp that i want to bridge to one channel at 4 ohms to power a sub. Im running an 8 guage power cable down the passenger side with an inline 60 amp fuse about 12" from the battery to the power terminal on the amp. Then i am running the RCAs down the drivers side with the remote wire but I'm not sure what to hook the remote wire to on the headunit. I have an adapter on my factory harness to fit my after market radio and from the wiring side harness (connecting factory harness to new harness) i have a blue wire. Is this the wire i am supposed to use for the remote? I also have an unused blue/white wire coming from the back of the radio harness that says "system remote control" Which one do i use? Also how do i bridge my two channels into one? thank you so much

if the wire gets power when the HU is on then it's the right wire.
If you want to bridge 2 channel into 1, be sure your amp is capable. If it is, then it should have marking on the speaker out terminals. Good luck.
