Actually I had to mount my amp upside down cus the ground wont reach the other side if I put it right side up

Could I ground it under the rear seats somewhere? I sure would like to flip my amp over..... would look much cleaner too

Actually, would the bolt holding down the rear seatbelts work as a ground? I can't get the thing off yet to try, need a socket wrench ;P Knuckles all torn up trying to loosen it with an adjustable wrench haha Either the seat belt holding bolt, or the one that holds the rear seat belt fasteners..... let me know if those will work Thanks!

 

im going to change it but for now i have my amp under the passenger seat grounded to the seat bolt and i have the amp in my trunk grounded to where you screw in the spare tire........

 

I highly reconmmend grounding where the grounding points all come to a bracket which is on the left rear passenger seats beneath the panel... But anyhow as long as you scrape paint its all good...

 

beneath the panel? explain

 

If you remove the panel in the back (where the rear passengers sit and also its the panel that covers the speaker, and it also contrains the cup holders) on the left side you will find a bracket that contains several grounding wires grouped together. Just remove the bolt and place your grounding wire there. I was going to do mines where the taillights are but it looked kinda non-professional IMO.

 

Also before removing the panel that covers the speaker and contrains the rear passenger cupholders, you may have to remove the bench which isn't hard. Just lift up I believe. Then remove the grocery bag hangers and pull the panel away. You will find the bracket.

 

ahhhh good plan! I couldnt get the grocery hook off before. I got it to turn sideways and i pulled but it wouldn't come out.... any other tricks to it?

 

thats why I did.. I used pliers and wrapped it around a towel then twisted and pulled. Just look to make sure the tabs come out.

 

I'll get it out one way or another! I don't have time to try until like tuesday though. Thanks for the tip, will definately move the ground there

 

Cool. Just let me know man if your stuck. At first I had my ground where the taillight cover is.. but it looked tacky IMO. So I remvoed the panel and found that bracket. Just made a little hole for the cable. The ground cable is nicely hid on the side of the passenger bench. Can't even see it.

 

I hate the grocery hooks.

I've done it at least 7 times and it's still the one thing that takes me forever...but I think the insides of mine are a little messed up since I can spin them in the holes

 

haha ouch

I got mine to turn sideways after pushing the bottom tab in, but it still doesn't want to come out. Looks like I will have to attempt the towel method and rip it out ;P

 

I think the grocery hooks are crap.. seems to small... I've used them before and my bags fell
