Was the headunit you removed an SC901 (the one with 3 disc cartridge)? If so, then you need another cable, to connect the headunit to the cars amp as you are currently not connected to the speakers at all.

if you reach down the back you'll find the amp loom plugs into the head unit loom on mine i just unplugged the amp loom and plugged the iso loom in its place and voila straight through to the speakers :)
no sure how far down but you'll know it when you see it

might be able to take some pics for you
