HI, I am going to do an install on a chevy astro van, i think it is like somewhere between 1992-95, and i need to know what people ahve done to run wires though the car.  i need to know where to put the power wire through the firewall and where to run the RCA's.  Right now, i think the easiest place to run the rca's and power inside of the cabin is under the carpet, but i may be wrong.  If anyone has any suggestions then i would really appreciate it.

Run the power wire on one side of the van and the rca's on the other side of the van under the carpet. Try not to bunch up the wires as that will lift the carpet and not look good.

You will have to make a hole under the driverside to go through the firewall. Run the power wire on the along with the remote wire on the driver side. Run your RCA on the passenger side. This is all of course under the carpet. If you want you can mount the amp under the drivers seat and run your speaker wire to the rear. (You may need to take your box out sometimes for your personal convenience)
My Personal Installer Note: Connectors are easy, neat, and professional. But do you know how to crimp properly?
