Where and how did you run your power/speaker and RCA's?

Is there other ways to avoid alternator noise. (A common problem that I had with a few of my past vehicles)

Power cable on one side of car, RCA's on other side. You want to keep the separated from each other to prevent line noise and such. Run them along the sides of the car under the carpet and panels.

There is a wire channel under the door sill. I ran the power line through there from the battery to the trunk with no problems or issues.

I ran the RCAs from the HU to the trunk through the center console and ran the speaker wires from the amp in the trunk to the front speakers through the center console as well.

The concensus was that RCAs and Speaker wires are OK to run together, but separate the power as much as is feasible.

The wire channel under the driver's side door sill is pretty full. You CAN run wires through it, but under the center console is probably much easier.
