Alpine IDA-x305 + alpine KTP-445 installation help

Hello, my name is Dan.

I recently received the ida-x305 that I commanded on Gibbys and my ktp-445 (radio amp).
I want to install it in my 2002 hyundai elantra.
I removed the old radio and than tryed to plug my amp with it and it is not the same plug. Now I wonder if I have to cut wires and do it by myself. Therefore there is not the same numbers of wire so which wire will go with which?

I bought Jl audi 6x9 that I will install sametime and I wonder how to plug them.

Thanks

Problem!

I have finish installing my head unit and the amplifier. I had to do the wiring by myself : I put all wire with same colour together and the ground too.
And now I hear a strange sound when I play them, like a statical sound, tinkling. When I reduce amplifier power I hear it less. I think it is the amp, if not what could it me.

Thanks in advance

I'd start with a check for a bad ground on your amp or head unit. I'm also assuming you wired your amp's power wire directly to the battery terminal?
