Okay, we need details of your current items... The amp, subs, stock HU? Does the amp have inline speaker connections?

Okay, you have a 2 channel bridgeable amp. I'd assume it'd safely carry a 4ohm load.

Now, you need to give us details on the subs... You have 2 right? Are they single voice coil or dual? If you don't know, just post it's model #.

To hook this setup to the stock hu, you'll need this ( http://www.crutchfield.com/S-gq7bfnE...g=721&I=101PL2 ). It uses the stock wires leading to the speakers as it's audio signal into the amp. Obviously it'll require cutting the wires, and getting some rcas.

Just go to (gasp!, I can't believe I am saying this)... your local walmart and get an amp wiring kit (preferably 4 guage). You will also need to get a "Line-Out Converter". If I remember correctly, Walmart carries Scoshe stuff, and the L.O.C. is going to be a little blue box. All in all, I think you will have about $40-50 in it total. You could probably pay about the same at a stereo shop, but most of them I know of charge too much for wiring and accessories unless you are letting them do the install.
