[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 4771751, member: 550915"] If you're still using the factory radio, you'll need a low level convertor to get the right signal to your amp. You'll need to tap the output of the radio before it gets to the amp. Your link doesn't work except on your computer for the amp (cookie issue) so I don't know if it accepts high level inputs, which would simpify the install by eliminating the need for the convertor. I'm also assuming that the amp does around 60watts per channel? An 8ga wiring kit should be plenty and if the amp accepts high level inputs, you won't need the RCA cables, just some wire taps and speaker wire (the cheap small stuff works just fine for this). I'd run new wire for the speakers themselves; 16ga is good for that. That should cover it. If you think that you might add a sub, get a 4ga wiring kit. [/QUOTE]
