  • Amp install

    Well I got it installed I just need an idea of how to get it's power cable from the trunk to the battery. If anyone is in Hamilton and willing to give a hand let me know. I currently do not own a drill to get it through the firewall and unfortunately don't have the key socket to remove my wheels lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you open your hood and look on the fire wall to the left where it meets your fender just under the where the stock boost guage sensor is, you will see an opening that goes under your dash. I used the hole for my boost guage hook up and my amp cable. Then if you follow along the floor on the drivers side tucking it neatly under the carpet you will come to the rear deck. Between the seats and the deck is another "factory" hole where you can slip your cable through. I never had to bring the drill out once. And dont forget to run your power cables on one side of the car and your signal wires on the other!

                My car is currently chillen in the driveway. You can stop by and take a look, its quite simple. Ditch the fender guards, run it out of the engine bay near the back of the wheel well, from there you'll see a whole bunch of wires going into the car, run it along side of them into the car, under the door gaurd/carpet, then through the back seat into the trunk. Text or call If you have trouble I'll be around until 6 today or sometime tomorrow as well. 289-808-3831
                Dang! You got shocks, pegs... Lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

                    ok so here it goes
                    in the first picture by my finger that is where my power cable goes into the fender
                    second picture kinda hard to see but where the door and the fender meet on drivers side there is a hole there and that is where the red cable goes into the cabin
                    3rd pic is where the cable runs along under the plastic door sill that says skyline
                    4th pic is the back seat on the drivers side i tucked the cable beside the seat and in the corner where the back rest and the part you sit on if you tape the power cable to a coat hanger thats straightened you can push it through there and there will be a hole there leading to the trunk
                    5th pic is where the cable comes into the trunk and how its hooked up



                    hope this helps if need anymore help let me know
