I just wired in a headunit, and there is absolutely no bass to the front and rear speakers. I didnt wire them in phase, or negative to positive, whats the problem? Any suggestions?

if you reverse 1 speaker in the front they will be out of phase and cause a no bass issue. check the wires to make sure phase is correct.

does the bass increase when you fade left to right? how about front to back?

No, no bass at all.......0. On the diagram, for example, it says RR Speaker (-) Dark Blue/Orange
Does that mean connect the dark blue to the orance wire?

no, that means the negative wire for the right rear speaker is dark blue with an orange stripe. That's the standard for listing wire colors: "wire color/stripe color"

It sounds like you missed the point.  The harness Jeff referred to was not the harness that plugs into the new stereo, but the one that plugs into your factory radio harness.  You can pick one of these up for cheap enough at several places (even Wal-Mart and AutoZone).  Then you just go color to color, and plug it into your factory radio harness when you're done.
My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
