Answered my own question sorry for the stupidity

i want to make sure i know how to wire this correctly, tell me if this is write or wrong, if wrong correct me =)

run the four speakers to 4 channel amp and sub to mono amp. run power wire with fuse 12" from battery into cabin then to a distributor block, from there run into each amp. run the ground wires separately to a grounded part of the truck, such as seat mounts. Splice the remote wires from each amp together and run them to rear of HU through dash attach to blue wire with white stripe. run 2 RCA wires to 4 channel amp RCA input from there run 2 RCA wires from 4 channel amp output to mono amp input.

Please tell me what im missing and what i have wrong! also any ideas for where to mount the two amps? i was thinking on the flaps that cover the gaps when the rear seats are folded down but im not sure if thats such a good idea. Tell me what you think!

That seems like a good idea. I hope that an audio guy comes in to agree.
The flaps where you want to mount the amps is a good idea.

If you get a headunit you'll want to run the RCA from the sub output so that you can control the level of the sub. Until then I would do it how you're saying.

Have you thought about getting it before your speaker amp or another part of your system?

i have considered but i couldn't decide which one to get and thought the factory one looked cleaner, but if you think its better to buy one of those before say the 4 channel amp suggest away, but give me an idea of which one to get thats not too expensive!
