it connects to the blue (remote) wire on the headunit. this provides a bit of power that switches the amp on

If the head unit only has antenna out use that, it does the same thing as a remote out, supplies power when head unit is switched on ( some units the antenna out may turn off if CD is selected)

umm....if you look at the back of the headunit coming out of the same loom as the speakers and power wires etc there should be a bluewire not connected to anything, you need to run a wire from that to the remote terminal on amp

its a 4ch amp right? you should have RCA's going into 2 channels.

Assuming its ch1 (left) and ch2 (right), then you run wires from ch1 output to your left speaker and from ch2 output to your right speaker.

Before you turn it on make sure everything it wired in secure and that the gain IS TURNED RIGHT DOWN. Then use a high pass filter and set frequency to 100Hz (seeing as you dont have a sub) and with stereo playing at 3/4 volume adjust the gain.

yeah sorry i thought you had a 4ch from ur other post...

so going to your amp you should have :power, remote, ground, and your RCA's. Then you just have to attatch speakers with speaker wire to the output, one speaker for each channel.

Just make sure you have them the right way around so the left speaker is on the left etc.
