[QUOTE="Speedbump3, post: 4647282, member: 593347"] The 10 ga goes to the battery not the cars factory harness. If you mean the harness from the Alpine, it is bigger than 16ga for the constant. The others are 16 but the main and ground were larger ga than the other wires. It wasn't 10 and I guess the wire doesn't have to be 10. I said 10 because that is readily available. The point of running a separate power rather than using the cars factory harness is because these decks draw more juice than standard decks. Alpine tells you to do it for a reason. it doesn't say it in the manual, but I wouldn't use the ground in the cars factory harness either. I grounded it by itself. [/QUOTE]
