Does any1 know where i can find step by step guides to installing my amp , subs etc etc...
look in the audio section
i cant be sure how much you know about installing whether you know about types of wires rca cables remote cables, if u have any idea about your headunit etc....
basically u need rca cables to go from headunit to amp....remote to amp.....powercable from amp to battery (run on other side from rca's)
ground cable from amp to car chassis speaker cabbles from amp to speaker's
very basic view but if u dont understand go to car audio place n get sum1 to do it 4 u
i wish to do it myself..
i installed my deck wasnt hard..
just amp etc is a bit more in depth..
just wanted a step by step guide u know?

The above link appears a little to complicated for a beginner.
However, there is lots of information out there. Since you are after really basic material, you might want to start here:

My personal advise would be, if you are asking very general questions such how do I install XX, then it would be easier/less timely (potentially less costly) to simply pay someone to do it for you. Most install shops also include a warrenty if things break down/dont work and you dont have worry about blowing anything up accidently.
Bad idea to try it yourself if u have no idea wat to do. u will need to run wires under the carpet or in the door seals from teh head unit all the way to th boot of the car. this ill invilve a lot of taking stuff apart so get it done prof for about 70 bucks
installing really isn't the hard part... its kinda like lego on knowing where to put what... its matching the items that gets tricky when you wanna get the most for your buck...
Nuts... gotta find a site for you. Can't remember what site it was but it was some American online store which has video guides on installations and they were installing an amplifier.
If I find it I'll edit this post or post the url below.
Btw I agree with Zdster- what he said is the reason why I didn't do it myself when I got the amp/sub installed. I don't know enough about cars and installation, nor do I have the time to learn, and worse still, I don't wanna accidentally **** it all up and screw up the components. By buying and installing all with the one place, it made things alot easier- the other day I went back (actually it was yesterday) and said not enough bass and I wished I had gotten a more powerful subwoofer... so he let me get the more powerful one for the price difference (as opposed to me having to chuck my 3-wk old sub and buy a new one). I think you also have to tune the amp as well so it's definitely beneficial to have someone knowing what they're doing with you; or getting it done professionally.
... and yes i'm aware that officially makes me a n00b.
^^^do they have one for ICE fibreglass fabrication?!?!?!
Fiber glass is easy! Just don't mix it too hot or you could burn up!! Also the hotter you mix it the more brittle it is, same with bondo. Make it cold so it has to cure over night and that will be best. Also depends what you want to make with it.

Good luck with it.

Although i never took out the seats and stuff when i did mine.
In fact i didnt use the article from TI, its pretty easy to do ureself, and i dont think they did it the easiest and 'better' way. However they have the drive to take pics and do a write up which i don't, so props to them.
Turns out the site is the same as one someone already linked to (Crutchfield);
