to run a sub and amp you will need to have a power suply from your bat with a fuse suited to your amp. and earth lead from your amp to chasis. a remote lead from your h/unit along side a set of phono (r.c.a.) leads. and speaker cable from your amp to the sub(s).
kits are available and works out alot cheaper than buying everything seperatley !
good luck

cheap units....

www.mcs-direct.co.uk (http://www.mcs-direct.co.uk) based in Lesta

one remote wire from the unit to the amp

set of pre out leads (some come with a built in remote wire in the centre) these go from the unit to the amp and carry the audio signals :)
