Need guick help

Post by Butchie »

Can someone tell me where to put the powercable to my amp? First; what side of the car? Second; where from the engine to the coupe?

There is a small rubber grommet below the expansion tank in the engine.

It's on the same side as the battery.

This hole in the bulkhead goes underneath the dash (you will have to pull the carpet and underlay down to see it from inside the car)

Then run the cable down the same side.

Be very careful when doing this job... If in any doubt, call in the pro's!

Just a quick note...

Make sure when you run your speaker wires from or to the amp that you run them on the seperate side of the car to the power cable, otherwise you'll get bad interference and sound distortion

Also,don't forget to fuse the cable less than 18" from the battery,cos you're running it through a metal bulkhead.And also,if you're using 4awg cable,try adding an additional 4awg cable between your battery,and the chassis.This will cut down on (but not remove) "dancing headlights",when you've got it turned up. :D :D :D
