    Amp wiring

    It pops open upwards, take a close look and you should see a flap on one side and a corner on the other. If you got that far you can just shove the wire under the carpet next to the factory wiring channel thing.

    Amp wiring

    There is a black channel along the bottom door sills, it has a cover that opens on a hinge you have to pry it open. It's kind of difficult you have to put some pressure on it. Also make sure you run your rca on opposite sides of the car.

    Amp wiring

    Check out my thread in the 06-10 modified forum titled complete stereo install. Use the factory wire channel that runs along the sides of the car. Pull the plastic panels in the bottom door jams. I don't have a picture.

I used NVX wires, fuse blocks and accessories they are the best priced high quality wires I could find in my countless hours of internet searching. When I did the big three I couldn't...

This worked out well because they are soft dome which has a smooth sound and great dispersion since...

    I just wanted to make a thread about my install, when I was in the planning stage I couldn't find anything on the internet for ideas and insight. This is a simple aftermarket replacement of the complete system, I'll try and remember as much as I can, if anyone has questions or comments I'd be...

    Amp Installation

    As others have stated use the big rubber grommet on the driver's side firewall. Use an awl to poke through at the top, be sure to check the inside so you are not to poke into any of the wiring. Get a small pvc pipe that the wire will fit through, grease it up with some silicone grease push the...
