    so you just bought it all without really having a clue what you were buyin??

    anyway heres how it goes...

    you connect the sub to the amp and the amp to the head unit, im sure you'll b able to bridge your amp for more power as most can be these days.

    6x9's straight off the rear outputs on the head unit

    as for the front you connect the crossover to the head unit (the two front channels) and the components and tweeters to them

    if you can get more info on the amp that would help and if you could get another amp for the crossovers that would also help.

    did you get a power cable kit?
    you need a power supply from the battery for your amp.

    ya wire components to mid and it will say head unit or amp as well thats obviously where ya head unit goes on tweeters to the high or tweeter port. do you mean your unsure how to wire the head unit up.
