Cool Garage, empty pockets haha

Need to figure out how long of a power wire I need so I can order an amp wiring kit...

PolishDude-- That all depends on where your putting the amp in the trunk? I believe I did 20' and I had about 3 feet to spare because I installed my 4 channel amp on the left side behind the toolkit with the distributions blocks going to the powered 12" sub.

********TIP: remember that you have to run the RCA's and remote wire to where the amp is located as well to the sub(I used distribution blocks)*********
PS> My next car is a C5,C6, C7 z

I bought an Amp Kit that includes 18 feet, I plan on placing it probably where the stock amp sits or close to it. I hope it is enough. I have a 5 channel amp so I won't need a distribution block. Since I am driving in complete silence anyways, I think I will just work on there stereo a little everyday after work, install front speakers one day, rear speakers another, headunit one day and save the weekend for running wires to the amp.

I want to reuse the factory speaker wire as I feel that will safe me a lot of headache and I am only sending 50 watts RMS through them, my only concern is the rear doors with the speaker and tweeter coming off the same wires off the amp, hoping the crossover is somewhere in the door and I can bypass it.

You will love them, I've owned a C5 Z, a base C6, and now a C7 Z with a bunch of vipers between the C6 and C7....I averaged about 6 months ownership on each of my 6 vipers yet I had the C6 for 4 years and am almost at a year on the C7 Z if that says anything.
