Wiring speakers to amp

[L22rules 10+ year member]

I just bought 4 new speakers for my SUV and im not quite sure where i need to begin. I was wondering if someone could walk me through the steps of installing the speakers to the amplifier itself. I know how to install the speakers, im just not sure how to connect them to the amp

Thanks

Your amps manual should explain things, but its pretty simple. + wire to + terminal on amp, - wire to - terminal on amp.

If you mean how to run the wires.

You will want to take out all the interior panels in the way between your amp and your speakers. Run your wire from the amp to the speakers. If you can you will want to run your wire through the stock door grommet. Mine have a hard plastic plug. I looked for a dead spot in the plug and dremeled through it. I then ran my wires into the doors. After that secure your wire all the way back with zipties and tape.

And of course positive to positive and negative to negative.
