[QUOTE="just call me KeV, post: 8813247, member: 656095"] Back with another small update. I took the time, before I did anything else; to wrap all the wiring in the trunk with techflex. the only exception being the rca cables which is a 6 conductor in one type. I didn't have any large enough and I'm not convinced I could run it in 3/4". So we'll just put a pin in that. I also did the 8 ga. for the subwoofers as well. Seems a shame since it was such a cool color but it is still visible in the cabin so no biggie. My midbass will be here tomorrow so I will have a little show and tell with them but I am really focusing on the "A" pillars. I don't have many pictures to show in that regard, yet. But will soon.
