Professional Tip

Installing in Trunk

When installing the amplifier in the trunk, run the power wires along the same path as the other vehicle wiring. Many cars have insulated channels for wiring. You will have to remove the door sill trim and the carpet.

Professional Tip

Securing Wires

Be proud of your installation! Use wire ties to bundle wires together when possible. (But never bundle speaker wires and power wires together!)

Professional Tip

Crimp Connections

Purchase crimp connectors and crimping tool. Connectors are color coded.

1.Strip 1/4 inch (6mm) of insulation from both wires.

2.Insert into connector.

3.Crimp tightly.

You can make permanent splices (using butt connectors) or select connectors that can be removed and reinstalled.

Secure loose wires to the vehicle to make sure they don’t rub or rattle.

Professional Tip

Speaker and Power Wires

Do not run speaker and power wires next to each other. Power wires can generate a “siren” sound in the speakers. Run speaker and power wires on opposite sides of the car.
