Car: 1993 Corsa Flair

System so far (just a cheapie):

- JVC KD-G611 head unit
- Alpine SXS-1757 component speakers and spacers fitted in front doors (after cutting the doors! lol)
- JBL GTO936e 6*9 speakers fitted on rear parcel shelf

I have got a JBL GTO2000 amp and a GT4 12" boxed sealed sub to go in, with a 720w (think its 4 AWG) autoleads wiring kit. You don't need to advise me of subs and 6*9's clashing I know all that.

Basically whats the best way to install the amp wiring? Cable routes? Best places to put power cable, RCA's etc, down seperate sides or ok together? Wheres a good grommet to go through to the engine bay? Wheres the best earth point?

Sorry about 20 questions and I spose I could search but I'm in a mad rush @ work hence asking this first heh.

Cheers guys any help is much appreciated!

quick question, is it best running the remote wire with the power cable? or is it fine along the RCA so they can be kept together whilst routing via the dash to the back of my head unit?

cheers

i did it with the power cable as the remote lead carries power and could cause interferance
