Good ground in trunk?
Before i proceed... Yes, i did read the sticky about the grounds...
My question is where are some good places to ground in OUR cars in the trunk? What is the best route to run 0 awg wire to the trunk without interference |

abbid - we've already went over this in his other thread, he knows it's overkill but it's not really going to do any harm.
i would run it along the passenger side door - assuming you can get it to fit in there, there isn't any other wires in there. and as for grounds.. some people claim to have luck with some random spots, but back to the battery is defiantly the only way to go in my head for this car. |
I ran 6 guage along the passenger side door and I BARELY got the damn thing to close. It's going to be a tight fit...

yYeah, I was able to get the kicker amp kit for the same amount of $$ as a regular 4 gauge. Right now i have the power running up thru the center console. I dont know if I can get two of the 0awg wires thru there... I know it will not go along the pass side...

I ran two 4 AWG (power and ground) through the driver side, with all the regular wires that are in there. Granted i had to cut out those plastic tab things, but it all fits.. have you tried the door thing without those plastic holder tabs? maybe you could do one in the center and one in the door, or down each side of the center. (this is why you don't use 0 AWG unless you are going from your 4 batteries in your trunk to your Dist. block less than a foot away) |
I ran two 6guage in there and it was one hell of a tight fit to get the thing to clip back into place.
|
As it stands, I have it grounded to the bolt in the floor right next to the rear right shock. Should that be ok?
|
My 2 gauge JL power wire fit easily along the passenger side under the white clips. I think forbidden ran (2) 0 gauge down the passenger side.
I currently have my ground at one of the bottom mounting bolts of the back seat w/ no problems, however, I still have small amps. |
