You are getting so close. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Just be extremely careful and make sure you do not have bare wire sticking out of your terminals. If you cant seem to get them all wrap them in good quality electrical tape. Not the .49 crap.

lol i was working on the shit since 3 pm yesterday to 7 am this morning.. in -5 degree weather lol.. i was determined to get that shit done.. sucks that i lost the lights on my amp but i guess something has to go wrong with my first install.. everything else went smooth tho

had everything done.. everythign worked.. amp lit up like it should.. so then i mounted it on the box and while i was doing that the power wire fell out and hit the ground wire on its way down and it sparked =/.. so im guessing im gonna have to deal with a amp that doesnt light up
