Wire it like this (the way electric130 stated):
So as long as the two positive wires are going into the amp's positive and the two negatives are going into the amp's negative, according to the pics that i posted (first page), my setup should be at 2-ohms right?

Hey Heres a pic of my trunk. I'm runnin 2 insignia 12s and a 360 watt amp. I'm currently usin my stock head unit cuz i cant get my aftermarket head unit to work. If you would like to help me out you could reply to my thread i started in the ice and electrical section. Anyways i did all the work on my trunk myself. My future plans include another amp and possibly a fibreglass box.

I like this setup the best. Visually its the best setup you've had. The only downfall is the functionality of your trunk space. I can see why you went with the new setup.

Thanks guys. I kinda think my taste grew over the years. While the new setup IS more functional, I feel it's more tasteful than the old look as well. It's discreet, but people still open it and go "wow". Plus, my snowboard is in my trunk right now. Couldn't do that before.
