Default Power for H/U PLEASE HELP QUICK!

I am replacing my Factory H/U Now, what exactly is the process of getting power to the H/u? I know it said something about running wires to the passenger side floorboard, could I please have something a little more in depth. It is the 12V wire coming from the H/U Right? So I do not plug it in to the harness I got, I run it straight to the 12V wire in the Passenger floorboard? What do I use to make it reach, or does it reach by itself? Need help quick please.

Need help LOL, thought I had it figured out. I did find a plug with Orange Yellow and Black wires. It just popped out, my question is how many of those wires do I connect to the new H/U Harness? All three or just one?
