Wish I could help, sorry about all the less than helpfull answers, some people just like to be rude instead of helpfull. Send an email to someone that knows a lot about this. His forum name is Scorchie and he is usually quite helpfull.

OK, I'll apologize for being a jerk in the posts I made to your queries, but...
Seriously.. you need to go to a stereo installation place.. You're asking a question with every step of the installation. After you get a wiring diagram, are you going to post a question about cutting the wires? Then a post about running wires the trunk? Perhaps, after that, a post about how to set the gain on your amplifier?
Honestly, you didn't need to take out your head unit. If you wanted, you could have spliced off the speaker wires in the trunk area for your rear speakers... does you car have speakers in the rear deck lid?
