Not as hard as it looks.

Out of the back of the radio there should be 2 block connectors

1. with 8 wire's these are the speaker wires
2no green (rear left)
2no white (front left)
2no grey (front right)
2no violet (rear right)

2. with about 6 wires (may vary)
1no red (to ACC, +12V DC)
1no yellow (continuous 12V DC)
1no black (earth)
1no blue (electric antenna)
1no orange (car telephone mute lead) optional
1no blue w/white strip (external amp lead)

If u have a pre-out lead this is for conecting to the amp, use a RCA lead and run this lead to ur amp (this is for the sound) and run a wire to the amp from the blue wire in your radio(this will turn on the amp when ur radio is turned on).

You will also need to run a seperate fused power lead from ur battery direct to ur amp (4-8 gauge wire). U can earth the amp with a wire running to the rear seat belt mounting point.(make sure it is earthed properly or u will run into trouble)

Wire the 2 subs to the amp(wiring will depend on if the amp is a 2 channel or 4 channel amp)

And secure the amp to something solid (trunk floor or to the sub box)
and secure the sub box aswell

PS. this job is not an afternoon job as all the wires will have to be run under the carpets and that is time comsuming

Hope this is of some help to u
