I am assuming that routing of both subnets so they can communicate with each other is already in place and a DNS zine for each subnet exists since you have said they are existing sites.
Within active directory sites and services you need to setup your different sites then create your subnets and IP connections. If you do them in the order u gave listed then the wizards are fairly straight forward.
You then need to move the domain controllers into the correct sites and then right click on properties of NTDS settings under each domain controller name and ensure the global catalogue option is checked.
