Power Wire Route with Manual Transmission

37Z

We'll do! Is it best to remove the rear passenger side panel (i.e. the panel where the seat belt retainer is located) to snake the power wire into the front hatch area?

I see from SlikNik video, he snaked the power wire to the rear of the door sill, then across to a existing hole in the carpert located under the center counsole, to the front of the hatch area.

Also, what length for the RCA wires if the amp is located in the front of the rear hatch?

90 ST

I had gutted the car to sound dampin everything, so i removed the panel, but you don't have to if you have good fish line of some sort. I think i used 16 ft RCA's, i ran them down the drivers side, but depending on the plan you could go shorter, i all ready had mine from my last car, and i wasn't going to buy new ones as the ones i have are not cheap.

I sound dampin' the side panels already which the side panals were easy to remove and reattached. I would seam the RCA run down the center console would be a more direct route.

I already have a plastic wire loom the run the RCA wires through. I guess the RCA wires would need to be approx. 12 feet in length if run down the center console into the front of the rear hatch area with some slack.

Anyone run the RCA wires through the center console area? IF so, is 12 foot long RCA wires too long or short?

Also, what speaker wire size is best if the componet speaker crossovers are installed in the the front area of the rear hatch? The speaker componet crossovers will be installed on eihter size of the amp.
