Can I wire a single cap to two amps without a power block or ground block?

[QUOTE="acribb, post: 3555221, member: 560070"] I have a 2004 BMW 530i that has a 2 amp setup. I noticed that the current draw is VERY slightly dimming my tail lights when the bass hits hard. I think a capacitor would easily take care of this. I don't want to spend a lot and just want the capacitor. I currently have my bi amp system wired directly to the battery (which is thankfully in the trunk). Since I am not trying to show the system, do I really need a ground block or power distribution block? Is the one fuse I have in the diagram below enough, or should I add an extra fuse on each 8 gauge run from the cap to the amps? Thanks for any advice...
