[QUOTE="shaun_bayarea, post: 562347, member: 557087"] ok so i bought a amplified bazooka tube and install kit today and have spent the last 2 hours trying to install it and am not getting anywhere so i'm thinking it has to do with one of these...... 1- how are you supposed to attach the wire from the tube to the battery. i found a place to run it through the firewall so thats not the problem. the cable that comes in the install package is a heavy cable than what is coming out of the tube but i dont think that should make a difference since thats what the guys at circuit city gave me for it. also on the end of the cable that is supposed to connect to the battery has a loop on it like it's supposed to go around the battery prong but it's waay to small to fit so i tryed putting it behind the screw that loosens the battery clips and i tryed just having it clipped between the prong and the clip...i finally tryed cutting the whole loop thing off and stripped about a half inch of cable and ran that in between the prong and the clip and still nothing. 2- i havent connected the ground wire to the chassis like it said to but thats only because i dont have a drill and therefore cant. i tryed attaching the loop to it and just pressing it against to chassis but it didnt make a difference. 3- and then theres the remote turn on line. it said to either connect it to your head unit under the antenna connection or under the accessorys but i couldnt find anyway to do either of those so i looked in the manual and it said that as a last resort you can just connect auto turn on wires and turn it to on and it should work.. sorry for the lond post, i'm calling up circuit city tomorrow but i thought maybe one of you guys could help me out first... shaun [/QUOTE]
