Nor did my Corsa so I just wired them up to the back of the head unit and ran the wires under the carpet.

just come to fit these, and on the back of the head unit there are just 2 phono cables..

as far as i can tell the block of wires has wires for the rear speakers... but is it ok to splice into these? and then run the cable?

yep just splice them in or if you dont want the head unit wires damaged then get a connection block which will plug into the wires fron the headunit then wire the speakers off that, first option is far easier though

I jammed my wires into the back of the block into the rear speaker wires (I have rear speakers but they're not connected to the wires ) and wrapped it in duct tape

Someone on Corsa sport did mine for £50 including parcel shelf cut with holes and the 6x9. Sound great!
