sail panel speakers wont work!! ok well the sail panel speakers wont work so i decided to pull the head unit which is an alpine ida x303. i notice that there were 2 orange wires not connected that came from the wiring harness and a blue and pink wire that werent connected that came from the head unit. the blue wire said remote on it and the pink said "int" are lose suppose to be connected for the sail panel speakers to work?? also what it the blue wire for that is on the stock harness that doesnt look like it connected to anything???

The two orange wires (one with white stripe and one without) are for dimming the illumination when the headlights are on. The blue remote wire is for signalling an aftermarket amp to turn on (not required for Monsoon systems). The pink wire is actually labeled "ant" and is used to control the power antenna. None of them have anything to do with speakers.
If you have a Monsoon system then the problem isn't with the wiring because your other speakers are working. You only have four channels of output from the head unit and they must be working or you would have other dead speakers in the car. Since the sail panel subs work with the stock head unit, I would check for settings on the HU that might have turned off bass output.
If you have a base audio system then it's possible the rear speakers (your sail panel speakers) aren't connected properly.
