Default Hooking up an Amp.

Hey everyone just need some help as I am hooking an amp for the first time. The car came prewired, just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Here is a pic of the bundle of wires in the trunk, looks to be a power, ground, radio and audio wires. I am hooking up this Alpine http://www.crutchfield.ca/alpine_mrp...500mrpm500.htm

Here is the wiring in the trunk:

Not sure what your looking for but ...

Big red wire +
Big black wire -
Red and white jacks to input
Little blue wire should be remote. To switch the amp on when the radio is turn on.

Thank you good sir! I guess the only thing missing is the sub and leads to it from the amp.

Get you some 16 gauge speaker wire and a nice sub and sub enclosure from Darksidesubs.com and you will be set.
Don't be cheap on the wire, the thicker the better.
