Well first you have to run wires from your stereo to your amp. Then you need to run wires from the speakers to the amp. You can go to best buy/ circuit city for amp wires, I think you can get some for like 40$.

you have to run power from the battery. you should buy a amp install kit at circuit city or where ever you choose. that way it has most everything you need. now if you have the stock cd player, you wont have the RCA outputs so you dont need RCA cables. you can ask someone down there how to do it, but youll have to use your speaker wires as the audio input on your amp. kinda hard to explain on here.

i know on my 6th gen you have to take the back seat out, to take the 2 side panels off, to finally take the top deck off to get the speakers out. not what you wanted to hear, but its gotta be done!

Thx for all the help, actually i found a website thats showed me how to do it... its good.. got pics and all.. hopefully this can help the other people out there...

also i put in some nice projector headlight for my civic.. man it looks slick now... it was pretty easy though.. take off the bumper grill and voila, the headlights at your disposal..

well anyway, here's the link to that website i was talking about.. wnage:" class="inlineimg" />
