[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 573242, member: 549629"] Fusing your system is way too important to get right to just have you guess or take advice from strangers. Do some reading on fuses, what they do for your system, and how to properly size them before taking on this task alone. The fact that you mention your amps and their ratings suggests to me you are making the same mistake many people try to size fuses make. Those fuses are for the wire, not the amps. Size the wire according to current draw (dictated by your amps). Size the fuses according to wire size/length. To do it any other way is allowing for error and possibly a dangerous situation. If you are unable/unwilling to fully investigate this topic and learn it before safely fusing your vehicle, then I highly suggest simply taking it to a professional to have him do it. The wrong fusing could lead to destroyed equipment, damaged or destroyed car, and possibly even to a horribly painful death. Take it seriously, make sure its 100% right. [/QUOTE]
