was thinking about wiring amp to the fuse box that is in the trunk but the wires look small...maybe 16 gauge...don't wanna ruin my car or rewire the fuse box..should i just run a wire to my battery, under the car, and then up into the trunk?...

then i have to run the remote wire?..should i run it under the car too or what?...i always hook up trucks and they are easy..i hate hooking up cares..

You will need a separate, fused lead from the battery directly to the amp. Use the power and ground calculator to the left from here. Don't forget to make a proper ground.

You will need to locate a remote lead from the current deck or under dash location. I wouldn't recommned running any wires under the car. You will need to remove the appropriate paneling and carpet to properly run the wiring.

I would suggest a PAC hi to low convereter to get signal.
