take the side panels off with a hex drive, and run em down the side. I took the seats and carpet outtaa mine and ran the RCAs under there

Try and keep the power cables away from the audio cables cos they somtimes interfere with each other.

When you open the door, there's a black plastic bit between the seat and the outside of the car... yeah ? There are a few covers on there, pop them off, unscrew the screws with a Hexagonal Screwdriver, then it will just hang off, wire the cables under them, then under a little bit of carpet, under the back seats into the boot, easy. That's my boot, doesn't help you AT all, but you wanted ideas Got a floor under that with the amp on, then a few struts kinda things, and that floor, with the sub on it

wires are done where i just said above.

Like Austin said, keep power and RCA cables apart, one down each side of the car
