power from battery to amp
ground from amp to car's shell
remote lead from headunit to amp to turn it on when you turn your headunit on (you can just bridge the power and remote terminals, but the amp will be on all the time and will drain your 12v
RCA leads from your headunit to the amp to feed it a signal.
then 2 or more wires for your speakers.
