Default going to install my system tonight!

high as f**k!
mad as f**k cause i havent had my set in this car and ive been driving for a while now!
my friend won't install it for me cause its night time, how stupid is that!
i bought a tube box for my kicker comp vr, its 16 inches in depth and is ported, it better sound good! i also have a blapunkt amp and a box with some mids i will run on the radio...
i basically know what im doing just a few discrepancies....

the power on the amp is 12v...simple enough...now, the REMOTE is the symol that looks like a train track breaking loose right? the ground is the alien looking symbol right? simple enough...

just so i get it all right, remote wire is (normally) the blue wire in the back of the radio...rca's from radio to amp, power from + to amp, ground from amp to chassis, i will be BRIDGING this amp on the kicker comp vr, now its double voice coil...how do i do this? on the amp it says - on one channel and + on the other gives 200rms...how do i connect these to the sub? ive never connected a double voice coil, the last kickers i had had a wire from one pos to negative and the 2 going out the box to the amp, am i to do the same?

thats basically the only thing i don't get, the wiring of the subwoofer, thanks!
oh yeah

maybe you have the voice coils wired in series? I dunno what the resistance is of the coils on that sub, but maybe they are dual 4 ohm, so you have them in series (8 ohm on the amp)

hope that makes sense.
