Help with 97 E-150 Radio Installation

Trying to replace the factory am/fm, cassette with a Alpine unit. Crutchfield sent a wiring harness with two flat plugs that are very similar, the factory radio has the flat power plug, but the second plug is a smaller rectangular plug with 8 conductors. The van has 6 factory speakers. Crutchfield says that it has a factory amp that needs to be bypassed but cannot tell me where it is. Any ideas??
Thanks...... Andy

I'm pretty sure the amp is behind the right quarter trim panel, just ahead of the rear wheel but the manual I have isn't very clear on it.
