You also need to let us know if the head unit is OEM or aftermarket.

ok. so you have a sub but only a four channel amp!? are you getting another amp to run your sub? is your deck gonna run your components?
cause essientially your should get your 4 channel xplod amp running your components, and get another amp. say a 400 watt 2 channel amp. a good one would be a rockford they have good prices. but if your looking for something really cheap get another sony.

Without giving specific information, specific information cannot be given. Sorry, but if you dont know whether or not to run a power cable to your amp, go to a professional. If you keep asking questions like these, lol, these guys are gonna eat you alive. Sorry. But to try to help. Sure, run a power cable to an inline fuse, then to your amplifier in the trunk, if that is where the amp is going. Ground your amp to the frame of your car. Hook your remote wire and rca's up to the amp from your HU. Run your remote wire and rca's down the opposite side of the car from your power cable.
