Where to hide wires...
Sunday, April 09, 2006 7:23 PM
Ok, now i know ur all going to saw in the door area place where u pull that trim piece up....RCA's on passenger side...power wire on drivers...but neways my question is...i have like...2 sets of RCAS going to the trunk, and speaker wires going up the passenger side (14 guage) and on the driver side theres speaker wires + a 2 guage power wire and there is NO ROOM to put the piece back in...like no matter where i position the wires it never works...is it possible to like rip the carpet up and run wires under there then under the back seat into the trunk? or is there some downside to that?? any help is appreciated

You could do it that waym but you might get an annoying bump in the carpet.

I have (3) 4 gauge wires under the driver side trim in my fire, yes it was a pita to put the trim in, but there is room.


Your other option is to put it through the ceiling trim. Wires will be much longer but that too will work.

same prob with 4 ga here, I just ran it under the carpet beside the plastic piece that holds all the wires, no bump, just a real pita.

i always pull a seat out and pull the carpet up. no sence in cramming them all into one spot when you have the entire floor to use.

i also take a seat out when running multiple runs of wires like that. a lot easier to do.

yea, pull up the center console and the back seat. i ran my rca's and my remote there. i drilled a hole in the change holder and put in a toggle switch for my remote to cut my amp off and on.
