Hey guys,
I'm new to this forum, but am not particularly new to in car audio.
I have been installing car audio for friends and cash on side for a few years now.
However i normally buy a new Wiring Kit for ever install i do from ebay or other online sources.
Does anyone know of a UK source to buy REELS (100ft+) of Power, Ground and speaker cabling.
Cheers in advance.

I'm just wondering here - no help for your question - but the cost of gas in the UK is like US equivalent of $9/gallon. Is petrol 'expensive' in the UK or is the culture sufficently different to not require cheap petrol? Or is $9 like pocket change to you folks? Do you have like "pain at the pump" stories every night on the news? How many pounds does it take to fill up a tank? Petrol is sold by the liter right? Did London ever pass that $40 tax to enter the city? What is the mood in the UK regarding climate change/global warming? ------------- "I'm finished!" - Daniel Plainview

Thanx, daboss593
Ive tried Monster and they want somewhere close to $150 SHIPPING to UK,
And AERPRO don't have a distributor in the UK.
I'm really struggling to get a supplier, my local electrical store want £160 for a 50mtr reel of 4awg which is
a little over $315!!!
I;m sure i must be able to buy for cheaper than that
Can Anyone HELP>!>??

If you don't care about the color of the cable look into welding cable, it has a high strand count and can handle the same amount of load as the "pretty" red cable. I looked around and found 4ga for 1.59 ft and I'm sure if you look you may even find it cheaper than that specialy if you are buying by the roll.

I always thought KnuKonceptz was a pretty good deal for their more lower priced items. I don't know if they shipped over seas.
