To run a sub w/out and amp, I usually take out one of the stock speakers and hook up to stock speaker wire to a larger piece of speaker wire and put black tape around where the bigger wire meets the stock wire. It is essential to put tape arround it to prevent a fire. From there, just hook up the wire to the wire terminal on the box and boom, there it is. It always works best if you have an aftermarket h/u with a built in amp. A box and black tape, wire, and wire cutters are all you need!!!
