Diagram for speaker connection?
I'm about to be running my sub on a mono amp, and use my 2 channel for my speakers. Problem is, I don't know how to connect everything. I found this one, wondering was it right.

And instead of connecting the speakers, I'm really connecting the aftermarket crossovers to the 2 channel right?

It's "right" but that doesn't mean it has anything to do with what you're doing.
Are you using an aftermarket radio?
If it's stock, is it the bose radio?
If it's stock and the bose radio, does your amp take differential-balanced signals? (probably not...)
If it's stock and not the bose radio, do your amps take speaker-level inputs?
If it's stock and not the bose radio, and your amps don't take speaker-level inputs, do you have LOCs?
If it's not a stock headunit did you run your own wires to the trunk?
If it's not a stock headunit, and you ran your own wires to the trunk, does your headunit have dedicated subwoofer channels?
If it's not a stock headunit, and you ran your own wires to the trunk, and your headunit doesn't have dedicated subwoofer channels, does it have a built-in LPF that can run the rear channels as subwoofer channels?
Do your amps accept speaker-level inputs?
Are you using the stock speakers?
If you're not using stock speakers, are you installing coaxial or component speakers?
I think you get the idea... Basically, from the headunit to the wiring, to the speakers, what are you using?
If you have no idea what I'm asking for, take your money to a pro, or a happy hobbyist and let them handle it.

So all you have to do is run your power wires w/distribution block, (capacitors are worthless), ground wires, rcas from the radio to the amps and speaker wire from the amps to the subs and crossovers that came with the components, and wire from the crossovers to the speakers/tweeters. Pretty straightforward.

One more quick question. My mono amp just got here, and it has output and input RCAs. Do I still have to gain access to the radio, or would I be able to connect the output from the mono, to the input on the 2 channel? I just hate opening my radio area cause I scratched the dash my first time.

I would run it down the center console instead. If your electrical system is in great shape, there shouldn't be any induced noise, but if there is any electrical noise present, it'll get magnified by running it by the power cable.
