[QUOTE="Firetruck, post: 6247904, member: 573935"] Hey all, I'm gonna try and swap out 4 speakers in my car and run them all to an amp, while keeping the factory sub, dash tweeters, and HU. My question is if anyone could run me by the tools and materials I'd need to do this, and places to get them. I have an idea of what I'll need but if I'm missing anything, please tell So all I have is a wire crimper which comes with a wire stripper and cutter (10 gauge and smaller) but thats about it. If anyone could give me a suggestion for where to get these things: Speaker wire for 4 speakers at 60 RMS Wattss each, should I go for 14 AWG? Amp Power wire and ground 4 gauge, around 15 feet And these are what I need right? An Ammeter for gains, probably will just buy it off eBay Then some harnesses for messing with the back of the stock HU? I'll probably ask the 8thcivic forums for specifics.. And a wire stripper/cutter for 4AWG wires, should I get this off eBay too? But yea, if someone could give me a good website to buy wires, and tell me if I'm missing a tool for the job, thanks!
