Question
Hi, I have a MA Audio 10" sub I'd like to replace the factory sub and the amp
as well. Are there any adapters available to adapt the existing input
connector? Also, what do those wires represent? Am I able to even use that
connection for and after market amp? Thanks for helping me on this.

The above wiring charts may help you understand what will work.

I think you mean "output" connector don't you?  You want to go from the existing output to the input of your replacement MA sub do you not?

http://installer.com/

has a near infinite supply of audio parts that you can search through.

But, I suggest you clarify what it is you want to do and then ask this question to Ernesto who is an expert in the adaption of aftermarket products to existing cars.  He is reached at:
