    Best way to route hi amp power cabling from battery to dash

    I know some of you have run auxillary power from the battery area up into the front of the cabin. Any pics on how you routed it, what you had to removed to get it through etc?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Don

    I would pack it into the lil cable tray w the stock 4ga that feeds the front pdc, that way it's protected... otherwise i've gone under door trim all the way through cars multiple times w a few thousand watts (stereos).

    ^^^ Prob the best way to run it. I ran all my speaker wire down the driver side as I usally like to keep power and sound as far aprt as possible. Most of the trim pieces come out fairly easy and just snap in. The only place you'll need a philips screwdriver is for the panel beside the rear seat and the B pillar trim piece. I've got a handful of wires routed through there for speakers, gauges, and lots of spares so theres adequate room to run whatever.
    I'll keep my money, guns, and freedom, you can keep the change.

    Can I use this route without pulling any seats or carpeting completely out of the car?

    The drivers side trim route you shouldn't have to pull seats or carpet .. just the rim yer tucking it behind.. I've seen it just shoved up under the trim by people and it "works" but I suggest taking the couple mins and pull the trim it's not that hard..

    Why not use the battery terminal that is under the hood near the fuse panel???????

    Should be easy to run a cable from there into the passenger compartment.

    That cable is powered by the battery in the back............

    ^^^ cause it isn't designed to add a bunch more stuff to it Hence the additional cable
