Cap installed on the Bose amps
After I finished my sound system I noticed that my dome lights would dim at high volume. I already installed a 1.25 farad cap on the sub amp, so I didn't think that was the problem. I played around with it for a while and notice that if I turn off the sub, the lights would still dim. That leaves the only Bose amps. I had a spare .5 farad cap, I thought, what the hell i'll install it on the Bose power circuit.
It worked great, no more dimming interior lights.

I got the .5 farad cap for free from a friend and the 1.25 farad cap was $75 at a local stereo shop. Heres a picture of the other cap.
