WITH A TERMINAL!!! but seriously go thru the passenger side under the dash behind the blower motor

Connect at the top of the fuse box behind the giant red thing with a giant + on it.

Yo trav, make a thread with pics and i'll get it stickied okay?

[CTKGP09]

that would be a good idea, pics in this case are pretty much essential for people doing their 1st stereo installation

[matt5112]

Not really. I did it without pics....

We dont use that one, we use the one near your passenger CV axle and oil filter adapter.

Not really. I did it without pics....

me too but i bet you didnt make a thread about it either

[matt5112]

Actually i did.

I checked and apparently I didn't. :\

[CTKGP09]

your confused, i was into audio when i was 15 so when i got the car at 18 i already knew what to do

then i wanted to go faster so i joined GPF and sold everything after my system ruined my struts

YAY

I havent really started many threads after checking. Musta just hi-jacked someone elses thread.

But srly, I dont mind a slow car as much if I can listen to music.

But if it has neither a sound system or speed then I'm not interested in driving it.

[CTKGP09]

right ive been saving up money (some due to selling my system) and im more than ready for a top swap, i still have aftermarket tweeters and speakers that a 200 watt amp powers, but stock cd player, sounds good tho

[matt5112]

True that.

Why are you never in the chat?

[yeacashgpgt2002]

thanks guys that all i need to no

[CTKGP09]

True that.

Why are you never in the chat?

i dont really have an answer, im usually hangin around in threads...i need to start poppin in the chats more

Why does everybody connect at the fuse box? Simpler install is my only guess? Even though I don't see anything wrong with wiring at the fuse box I still went straight to the battery. I like the simplicity of that. Something just makes me feel uneasy at the thought of pulling power through top of the fuse.

[matt5112]

because the alternator power wire goes there?

Because it results in a shorter run?

If you were a REAL boss you'd connect directly to the output of the alt.

[yeacashgpgt2002]

thats what i did and it worked out nice
