YAY...I do.



Here's how I got it in...yes, that's a pair of scissors...





Also, there's a really nice clip for the hood release wire...fits 2 runs of 0 awg with a little convincing ;)



Both of 'em coming out the firewall



My new friend the Yellow Top. Fits perfect, just needed a 1/2" spacer on the drivers side under the nut.



Also, ran some new Krystal Kable RCA's down the passenger side:



They just look like they belong there.

And yes...it's dirty, got vacuumed last night

 

Mandos,
refresh my memory. did you run those *through* the boot, or on the outside of the boot, in regards to passing through the firewall?

 

Check out the scissor picks.

Basically made the hole bigger, then had to jam that in to open it far enough. Unfortunately 2 STILL wouldn't fit. So I put one through about a foot, then taped up the second and pulled as hard as I could to pop it through that thing.

Paring knife and Scissors...gotta love improvisation.

 

So why would we have 2 runs of 0 gauge wire?
Mandos you rock

 

holy crap man i had heck time runnin 2 lines of 4gauge.. never mind 0 then had to do all over again when i changed my cheapo wallmart rca's to monster cable... i think i can now strip my intereior in half hour...

 

nice work, those cables were big fatties but you pulled it off. I have mine running somewere else, but now that i know you can do that im so going to.

 

SCREW THAT !!! hahaha i wanted to kill myself after running one of them through the boot, my fingers were killing me .....you are a god

 

^^^ white lightning lithium grease....

 

i used that...it was gettin my fat self in an angle with my hands to cut the boot

 

I never did get a pic of that.

Think...Ron Burgundy in Anchorman with his feet sitting on the headrest and his head on the brake pedal, with his hands shoved up in the dash.

 

^^^ HAHAHA..... your avatar..... "Milk was a bad choice"

 

Clean install. Why 2 power wires though and not a distro block?

 

Bordering on 5kW burps, wanted the least resistance possible

 

Ah, good call. And thumbs up again on the clean wiring, I've seen some installs that would make you want to cry.

 

^^ I'm sure anyone who knows the correct way to wire has seen installs that made them want to cry...haha... I know I have....

 

Commence Crying:





And yes..it was temporary...an I want bass but only have 10 minutes kinda thing. The kicks were like that because I only had 1 car...and music was needed.

 

The vehicles Chassis is worth about a 4 AWG wire. If one wire was for power and the other for ground, that's awesome.

 

mandos: haha nice! reminds me of the things we'd see in the shop! My all-time favorite was this old Mitsu Eclipse that had the radio with some apparently home-made brackets NAILED into the dash and the wires all scotch taped together. Another favorite was power wire ran underneath the car, zip tied here and there to the chassis... I think even funnier than some of the installs were the things we found in customer's back seats!

 

Or...if once done...there's 2 runs of 0 awg for grounding the stereo going back to the battery
