Default Need help w/wiring *pics inside*

Recently I purchased a 2001 Camaro SS through an auto auction. Today while cleaning the trunk, I noticed someone had messed with the wiring thats near the sparetire. Am I missing something? Can someone please upload a pic to see how its supposed to be wired? Or if theres a diagram I can follow, that would be great. Thanks for reading.
sorry, crappy cell phone pics

Looks like the wire harness for the factory monsoon amp. If your stereo and speakers work I would leave it alone.

yeah, seems like your amp is missing? See a black box directly to the right of that?

Hmm...nope, no black box.

Stereo seems to work (it turns on and i could change stations), but Im not getting any sound because it is missing the front and middle speakers, it only has the rear speakers, but still no sound. My guess is when it was at the auction someone must of stole the speakers/amp.

Suggestions anyone??

if youre not looking to do a custom system then you can usually find the monsoon amps in the classifieds for pretty cheap

Since that harness is all cut up and you are missing the speakers/amp the best thing to do is install an aftermarket setup.
