And then go off that with some 18/2 wire available at home depot
I replaced one of those with an ecobee3. What's you're missing is the c-wire or wiring to give it 24v of power continuously.
You need a 24v transformer like this
Currently mine is plugged in near my furnace in my furnace/uitility/work room and the two wires are run up through the wall to my ecobee. But until I had a chance to run the wire I just had it plugged into an outlet in my hallway below the ecobee. I just ran the wire from it, straight up to and in behind the ecobee (yes, outside the wall... it didn't look great, but it was just temporary until I could take the time to run new wire.)
