    Cabling Questions

    To those of you who installed systems with multiple amps.....where did you run your signal wires? I have 3 amps I'm installing. I've got power and ground...no probs there. However, I have 3 big fat RCA cables that I intended to run down the passenger side of the car. The problem is, Toyota is too damn efficient with their constuction process, and I can't find enough room for the cables. Anyone else find an elegant solution to this problem?

    I ran a bunch down the center. The tricky part is getting it under the carpet between the end of the console and the back seat.

    Under the capent most defently

    Just go through the center it works great its alot 2 take out but works I had my seats out made it even easier. I plan to Dynomat soon when I do my whole car will be coming apart if I find some hidden Wirechase I will say but those RCA wires are not to thick I ran my 4gadge power wire and still could run the rca's with no problem but I now have my DVD player most of the stuff is under my drivers side seat

    The RCAs I have are pretty darn big. Even though they were expensive when I got them, I'm thinking of swapping to a different, smaller cable. Even so, I'm concerned about getting the signal where I want it. I ran my 4 guage power cable down the drivers side after pulling out all the molding....I had just barely enough room. I would like to have split-loomed it, but there was no room for it. My 3 RCAs are at least 4 times the diameter of the 4 guage....so the center seems to be the only place to run it. Is there some room where it's not going to make the carpet stick out?

    I'm thinking of getting new Stinger interconnect cables. Anyone have any recommendations? I like the idea of the Helix series cables, but I'm not willing to compromise my signal quality for space. Any advice would be useful. Thanks.
