the RCA from the stereo goes into the RCA jacks on the amp. The amp power wire is run to the battery, the gnd wire is connected to a bolt one the chassis. you also have to run an auto turn-on wire from thestereo to the amp.

directly to the speakers ....... the harness is for connecting up the CD player. The harness can also be used in conjunction with the factory wiring to use the CD players internal amp to power the mid/tweets in the stock location.
