Amp Wiring
« on: 26 July 2011, 15:42 »
Hi guys,

want to progress from my alpine under seat amp to a 12" sub enclosure in the boot.

I have phono and remote wires already fitted.

what i want is advice on installing the main power cable and a suitable battery terminal/fuse setup.

i have the basic golf mk3 positive terminal with one large and two medium wires and need to fit the medium wire for the amp.
any suggestions on a terminal.

also does anyone know of a bulkhead hole on the left hand side?

thanks

Should be a spare m6 hole on the terminals.

2 inch grommet behind battery for cable through bulkhead.

8awg power 30a
4awg power 100a
0awg power 300a

Fuse engine side of bulkhead.
