cable routing
Hi
I am in the process of fitting an alpine HU,Alpine 1600 powered sub woofer, kcb865 remote adapter, infinity reference speakers and alpine ipod adapter (KC420 from memory).
I have seen a number of neat ipod installations in the glove box between the seats could anybody offer any advice on the cable run into the glove box. (I have mounted the interface box beneath the passenger seat).
I propose to mount the crossovers in the door panel. As I understand it the cabling to the existing door speaker is connected to the crossover and there are two outputs from this one for the tweeter and one for the woofer. I have seen another link somewhere where this was done but I can't find it, I recall the crossover was mounted close to the tweeter. Is this OK?
Any advice gratefully recieved
regards
Graham

the stock system uses some tiny passive inline crossover not a fancy outboard box... heck, i forgot what it looked like... soon as i got my new system i yanked the old wires out. the existing wires are inadequate (too thin) for a nice aftermarket setup anyways, so you'd want to run your own starting from the amp. i mounted my crossovers in the door, inside a little empty plastic housing attached to the door (though i had to cut parts of it because my xovers were too large)
