[QUOTE="Speculant, post: 7156814, member: 629272"] I quickly figured out that the max load on most of those small wires (used for cigarette lighter sockets and radios) is ~100w, I'm not completely retarded. Thanks for the idea about the coat hanger, though. I think I might try to find and use the same hole in the firewall that the antenna goes through, and if not then I will make a new hole on the drivers side, because the signal and audio cables run thru the passenger side. Also, I kind of knew about the grommets and inline fuse adapter (I bought a 8ga wiring kit, but I prefer to use my own speaker wire and stuff, I basically just bought it for the power wire, inline fuse and long RCA cable). I was thinking about getting a multimeter, once I get one, I assume I attach the red clip to the +12v line I ran to the trunk and the black clip to anywhere I think I might get a ground, and it will (hopefully) be a complete circuit.
