[QUOTE="BOOMINGRANDPA, post: 8543968, member: 671921"] when i had amp installed maybe 12 yrs ago they ran power wire to nut on fuse box (under hood)not battery (04 grand prix).. i'm looking at it to see what all i need to do big 3 upgrade.. i noticed wire from alt goes to battery but has a "y" off to the fuse box so it's basicly just running straight from alt to fuse box and amp wire is also running from there., so i think i should be able to just run bigger wire from alt to same nut on fuse box my amp is running from and amp with have almost direct line to alt but also have battery power (cause i'm going to leave factory wire there too) and won't have to hook it to battery which makes it easier and they wires i was going to get would reach (4ft) if not i'd have to get longer wire to run to batt., and ground wire is only like 2ft from batt so no problem there except batt terminals are stupid (may have to change it).. just wanted to know if anyone had seen or done this [/QUOTE]
