[QUOTE="wokeupquick, post: 4544835, member: 591963"] Ok, sweet. So then everything is set, I will do the following tomorrow: 1. Cut 1 foot of power wire off, strip both ends, attach to one end to ring terminal and one end to fuse. Strip one end of rest of the x feet of wire I have and attach that to the fuse (do I need to take out the fuse connector when hooking all of this up?). Attach ring terminal to positive terminal of battery. Find a place to run the power wire through the firewall. 2. Take off trim (any tips on how I should go about removing this?). Run power wire under the carpet on driver side, somehow get through to the trunk (again, how should I do this? I have seats that can fold forward - should I just run it through a crack there?). 3. Run remote wire and RCA's from the back of the deck, I'm guessing under the dash -> under the carpet after removing trim on the passenger side. Run that to the trunk. Does that look good to all of you? Anything I should do to "secure" things, like electrical tape, zip ties, split looms, etc.? I have all of these supplies. How much wire should I strip off each end, approx.? And I guess I'll use a razor blade to do this. My amp. is currently on its way to my house, so I won't have it for another few days. Is it okay to operate the car with all this loose wire sitting around in my trunk? [/QUOTE]
