Yes, there are snakes that live in many amplifiers.  When you hear the amp going "sssss" the snake is talking.  Usually, the "sssss" is followed by the snake's death.  When they die, they emit smoke, usually white.  And often times they smell really bad, like burning rubber.

There are also snakes inside electrical power cables that will bite you if you touch the conductor when it is energized.  Some wires hide very small elephants, and if you touch them when turned on, the little elephant stomps you to death.

They have also been known to coil up inside of subwoofers and strike without warning. They emit a scratchy rattly sound when they are about to strike when they are found in a subwoofer.

you mean wire snake?

wrong term, snake is a plumbing tool to clean drains.  Electricians use a plastic or fiber fishing tool.

Installers use: long screwdrivers, old antenna's, large zip-ties......or just take most of the car apart...so we don't have to 'fish' ....or snake any wiring. 

wow, I didn't even read the post, I assumed you were talking about something else.  You guys are a bunch of comedians in here!

There's more animals in car audio.  There are the snakes inside and outside the amps.  Cannaries in the speakers, bees in the decks, birds in the siren.  I'm hopping to train a monkey to do installations in the smaller cars.  This bussiness is goin to the dogs.

theres a profitable idea, train a monkey to sling harnesses....... of course theres the over head of the monkey, but he could probly out shop-talk us all.......    you know what i'm talking about.

Think of the gimmick factor of "that shop with the monkey"

I don't think the monkey would have any trouble passing the MECP basic test, with a little time to study ofcourse. After year, he could legitimatly become first-class MECP and he's only moving up from there!
