Default audio wiring

Sorry, kinda new at this. I have a 2009 Harley Ultra Classic and I am installing 4 speakers and an amp. I have looked at the step by step instructions and I'm really confused. I have two ampseal connectors on the back of HK head unit. The output of the amp to front speakers is easy. But which connector do I tie into for the input on amp? Also it appears the speaker wires are run to the smaller ampseal connector. Any help would be appreciated.

Take look at sticky at top for Step by Step instuctions Ultranutz did. This one should apply to you. Steps 12-18 will tell you how connect amp high level inputs to your stock speakers wiring harness.

Thanks for the reply. I did look at the step by step but I got confused because I thought the amp connects between the speaker wires. Again, my speaker wires (at least the front ones) run into the smaller ampseal connector. I'm sorry if this seems confusing.
