how should I wire it?

[myjaja 10+ year member]

Im going to run 6 runs of 0 guage wires, but how should I run it? It seems its going to be hard to run it through the car. I have a 96 honda accord. So should I run them from underneath the car instead or is that a bad idea?

thanks

i have a 97 cl which is basicly your accord. my best bet would be underneath along the skirts OR take out the passenger/ driver seat and run them under the steel bracing that dont move.

If you run it under protect it best as you can. Ideally running it through the inside of the car is best but if you don't wanna cut anything then run it underneath

thats why i said along the skirts. our cars skirks go a ways deep in the bottom that you could take off and tie them to the frame and brake lines. then the skirt will protect it from 90% of damage.

6 runs...I assume 6 power and 6 ground?.... its going to be dang near impossible to run inside the car and make it look like nothing is there... who knows maybe running it on the outside will also make your car magnetic haha

You can take out both seats, and run them inside the car, and make a raised/false floor of approx 1in and cover it back up with the carpeting?? Just a suggestion,yet i do not recommend running underneath the car at all..leaving the wiring exposed to weather damage, along w debris damage.Not hard to do, and you can use/ buy longer bolts at Home Depot, even 1/2 inch is all you need??IMO

Thanks for the all help guys. I rather run them from the inside of the car but I guess ill just run them from underneath. Ill mess around with my car first to see if I have a lot of room underneath my passenger seat.
