Just a noob with a welder

Depends on what trim level your car has. SB19 in a "high 2007 on" car is the radio(r), nav(J503) and sat(r19). But on a "low 2006 on" SB19 is the wiper motor control. SB8 is the one you want. (Check your owners manual / labels on fuse boxes or post the year and what options came stock on the car)
The big fat wire to power you amp you want to run all the way to the battery and put a inline fuse holder within ~6" of the battery. Ground just take to the nearest frame ground point. (there is one under the side carpet by the tail lights on either side). For the remote turn on you will need a LOC that supports supplying a remote turn on. Our cars don't have a power antenna wire so you cant use that. (NOTE if you replaced the head unit with a aftermarket ignore what I just said and use the correct wire). As for the left rear speaker there is a bunch you need to remove to get to it. First question is do you have a stock radio in the car? If you have a aftermarket one what you want to do changes. If your car came with "premium" sound the easiest place to tap into the speaker wires is at the premium amp under the drivers seat. (Slide the seat all the way back and if there is a metal box with a wiring harness connected to it just under the front of the seat you have premium sound.)
