   the car should have the two connectors if not u can buy and iso connecttor to bare ends, altho it can be a ballix to work out what wires do what unless u have a diagram.

   basicaly,
   
   the previous owner has screwed the wiring loom lol
   
   safest bet is probably to get to a scrappy and get a new loom

    by the looks of it mate the white block u have is the most important, that contains the speaker cables. the other block (in your case lots of wires with connectors, look to me to be the live, ignition live, earth,

    the wiring block that is left intact is the speakers and the other wires are 2 power (thick grey wire is permanent live, thinner grey wire is switch live) light blue is illumination, yellow is earth. you can pick up a iso block connector for about 4 quid and its easy enough to wire up.
    
    hope this helps.
