Default Running Wires (Pic's)

I wanted to post pictures of how and where I ran wires for my amps in the trunk. I couldn't find many visuals when I searched so I made some for others.

I ran the power wire through the harness behind the battery. I removed the battery, removed the electrical tape, and then I put soap and water on my hands and ran the wire through my hand to make it slick. Just a tiny bit of moisture on the wire will make it slide through the harness without any problem. Then I taped the harness. I ran the power wire along the passenger side into the trunk. (I removed the seat, panels, and spare tire.) At this point I also ran an amp turn on wire from the head unit to the power wire and to the trunk together.

Power wire behind the battery.




The speaker wires and RCA

Nice, that's exactly how I did my wiring. Nice angling of the sub too.

Thanks,
I'm going to add an amp rack and make a Plexiglas cover between the amps and the trunk so you can see them. I also want to add a light over the amps. I have extra places for wires off of the distribution blocks. I also will make a new box for the sub that takes up the full well and is a little shorter. It's a good excuse to buy more tools.

Nice job detailing the wiring - that's exactly how I did mine too.

Nice choice on the amps too btw - looks like a200 or a300's?

They don't make them like they used to!

I'm still trying to get my ax606.2 to fit in the trunk
