Amp Wiring Gauges
« on: 09 April 2006, 14:14 »
Hey People,

Just bought an amp and Components for the old Mk2, can anyone give me some idea of the size of wiring kit I will need to power the thing up. Also is there a good place to poke the + and - power wires through to the battery as I dont want to start drilling holes if I can help it :smiley:

As I understand it, the amp is a 4 channel with 375W per channel (1500W total peak power).

I am going to attempt fitting probably this weekend coming (Easter) so any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
