[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 7925519, member: 628688"] I read that you got the bass working better, but you need to fix the ground connection. Self-tapping screws are not good for amplifier ground wires. I use a bolt, a nut, and a lock washer. Also your ground location could be better. You're getting additional resistance by having the circuit path go through multiple layers of metal and welds. If you can ground it through the floor of the body near the strongest structural supports that lead up to the engine bay that's better. You'll need to be able to get to the underside to put the lock washer and nut on. [/QUOTE]
