[QUOTE="faiz23, post: 5714326, member: 607241"] hey i have a couple thing i want to ask, i am worried about the ground for the amp since it was close to the spare tire well. i stripped it using a dremel to bare metal and that used a big 14mm bolt with a steel thread to secure it with star washer type lock. it was slight loose but i secured it to the point it was tight. i do not want to drill another hole, there is a big torx bolt that hold the rear setbelt down, i want to see if i can secure the ground to that and see if it helps any with dimming, i will add the battery if needed, then if that does not cure it, i would like to try a 1/0 run from the front batt to the rear for ground. move the engine to batt 1/0 run and relocate to engine to chassis. i will check resistance before i move the ground at all and then go from there, but i think i need a good solid ground from the front and possibly a small battery or atleast me hopes lol. my plan is to upgrade on her car to a hid retrofit soon which should lessen the load.
