[QUOTE="Boomin_tahoe, post: 8540377, member: 562180"] So if your aware of the "correct" way, then why did you ask? You sound like you know the answer already. Depending upon the amp's wattage, the better solution would be running a separate power wire from the battery to the amp. If the amp accepts up to 8 gauge wire, then run that. Running thin power wire (18-22 gauge) is asking for a fire hazard. Will more than likely burn your car to the ground due to lack/insufficient proper gauge wire. [/QUOTE]
