this is my first audio system install and i'm a little confused on what to expect when i pull the headunit, and how to proceed once i do. i believe my car has a factory amp installed but have seen people saying the "without amp" pinout is used for all aftermarket wiring. these are the two pinout diagrams i'm looking at:

which pinout should i use? if its the "with amp" version, which wires do i tap into for the high level inputs to the DSP/amp? what is the voltage coming from these wires as i need to set the jumpers inside the DSP ( https://www.audiotec-fischer.de/media/pdf/3c/86/6c/HELIX-V-EIGHT-DSP-MK2_Web.pdf page 28-30 with chart on 32, any clarity here is much appreciated).
is there anything else i should do, like disconnect the factory amp, disable anything, adjust any headunit settings or anything to make for a better audio experience?
many thanks in advance for any assistance getting this installed.
