I bought alpine SWS subs (2) to replace ones in my honda. I can not figure out where the wires from the amp connect to the subs. The wiring diagram shows the jumper connections but no where do you see on the subs any place to connect to the amp. My old subs had two wires each connection to the amp. I know it must be something really basic and I just can't figure out what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

no alpine subs should just have push terminals

yes, where they actually connect. I don't see any place to connect the actual wires. There are 4 connectors where the diagram show the jumper conectors are 2 positive and two negative, but doesn't look like there is any place to screw anything into these type of connectors.

push down on the terminals where the jumpers go. then you'll see a hole appear on the front of the termianl. strip the speaker cable and put it in there. after that place the terminals according to the ohm load you want.
