[QUOTE="sumone, post: 404530, member: 551481"] lol, yea that 8ga crimping using my bare hands tire the hell outta me... I'm kinda glad I didn't do it, cause when I went to sleep last night, I thought of something: the final wire that's going from the fuse holder to battery, I just had measured the distance that the wire would have to be and added a few more inches. The bad thing is that I planned to connect the wire over the top of the battery and on the terminal - if something ever came loose, the hood would be a very good ground, and well, you know the rest. So it looks like it was for the better....now I gotta buy some more ring terminals; however the stores that I thought would have them (radioshack & ace hardware) don't, so gotta order over the internet. Also some electrical tape would be good too - got a feeling scotch tape isn't good enough for taping over connections (however that's what I've done since the end of the remote, power, & ground wires connecting to the amp were bare just laying in the trunk). oh yea and about trying to have a clean install...that's pretty much the last thing on my mind - when I took those pictures, it was right after I got them wired; I just like documenting my progress (and especially showing them to my family since they were highly against me doing this stuff).
