get a jigsaw, some MDF and some black paint Cut out the mdf to make a panel that fits over the kick panels, right around and up as high as you can go where the 6" hole is in the kickpanel, cut a hole for the 6x9 in the mdf, then chop enough steel for it all to fit in paint it black, plug some wires into the speaker and screw it in, run the wires to where you want to put the amp (under the glovebox is good if you plan on the floors getting wet) Repeat for the other side screw the headunit thingo in where you want it to go, the spot in the dash for it is useful here Run some wires Fat red cable from the battery to where the amp will be, make sure the fuse is close to the battery Fat black form a good earth (on the body is fine) to the amp Both your pairs of speaker wires to the amp hopefully your amp kit has an RCA lead, run that from the headunit to the amp, along with the thin blue wire in the kit Wiring Headunit Yellow wire, run to constant power, red to acc and black to Earth, you can get all these from the clock wiring plug the antenna in and the RCA leads and thats done Amp (use the 2 Chanell) Fat red to the Battery + terminal Fat black to Battery - Blue to remote Rca to the RCA sockets each speaker + and - to the left and right speaker terminals, make sure you get the polarity right or it will sound bad should work then, dont worry about the rest of it, 2 big speakers mounted solid (the MDF is important) with some power up them is more than enough in a Sierra, more speakers and amps will just use more power |

What Royce is trying to say is match the blue wire to the blue wire at the back of the stereo (just incase there's any confusion). It acts as a switch to turn the amp on when the head unit comes on |
