You need positive 12v feed and an earth. Otherwise get a pro to install.

A wire (positive) from the battery, another wire from the body (earth). That will turn the head unit on.

Speakers, each speaker will require positive and a negative wire.

To test what connection is positive and negative on a speaker, get a 1.5V battery (a AA or AAA) and quickly touch each end onto the connector (Don't hold it on, very quickly) and see if the speaker pulses in or out, you need it to push out.

You will also need a positive wire for memory (which saves the clock and settings), which is on all the time.

^ What he said. If you can't work out some simple wiring take it to an installer. They will be able to do it in under 30 mins.

From what I understand it's easier then installing one in a modern car.
