Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

I let mine unwrapped and I have had no problems with binding or anything. I have had it for 6 months now.
        Hi,
        Do you have a pic or pics for how your wires are ran?
        Thanks,

          Wow, that looks hard. To go from the fuse box inside the kick panel to that grommet, you must hook it about 90 degree to run through grommet. I see that grommet in my door. From grommet, how do you run the cable into your door? Do you have a complete pic?
          Thanks,

            i did this in prez's car thats on this site, i love doing it in hondas its even quicker.
            This part totally confused me on how the wires are really run? Could you give a diagram or explain in a way of a to b to c, etc...?
            Thanks,

              I have been sending over 100watts RMS to my front speakers for over a year now and I have NOT ONE single problem.

              Remember the stock wire from the rear of the deck only travles around 5 feet to the door speakers, so its barely loosing any resistance.

              I am planning however to upgrade my wiring, not because the stockers are bad its because I am forced to. I upgraded my front comps and well it demands atleast 200watts RMS(each side).
              In that case, you got some pics of your work? I just want to gather as much info before I do my install this week.
              Thanks,

                If your amp is mounted in the trunk, could you like run the bigger gauge speaker cable toward the rear of the head unit and tap into the stock speaker wires from there? This would reduce the resistance up to where the stock wires are?

                Thanks,

                  Yes it will.
                  Will the difference be noticeable? Probably not

                    I am finally going to mount the amps today. It's so hot outside today.

                      What is the power output of that amp? It doesn't matter what the power handling rating on the speakers is, what matters is how much power your amp is putting out, and you want the RMS number, not the peak number.

                      My current setup is pushing about 42 watts / channel into the front speakers. I'm running 16 gauge wire from the trunk under the back seat and carpet into the center console, where it connects into the factory speaker wires for the front doors. It's clean, and works just fine. I probably wouldn't try to push much more than about 50 watts through those stock wires, however in all reality, they could likely handle in the neighborhood of 100 watts safely.
