When I get a chance I'll get back with the wire colors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have plenty of figure 8 cable, I think it's like .75mm or something...would this be ok for the front and rears?For the crossover things for the fronts, they just have the normal incoming speaker go in and then the tweater comes off the high freq. term. and the woofer/speaker comes off the mid-bass or something right?I don't have any of the gear yet, should be here tomorrow hopefully I'm going a 4 channel amp for the front fusion PP splits and the rear standard speakers (may change the rears later but I'll see how it goes first).I already have the mono block amp driving my 12" sub. Installed by a shop. I can pinch my remote cable from here and incoming power and earth for the new amp I'll run again next to the power supply for the sub amp.Will most likely be getting the 660 LOC or something that can drive the 3 dif. lines being front, rear and sub.

Shyfrd Turboless Donating Members 5,992 Member For: 14y 10d Gender: Male Location: Geelong, Victoria Posted 15/07/12 12:18 PM Share Posted 15/07/12 12:18 PM My LOC I hooked up to the wires infront of the aircon filter (behind the glove box..take it out and easy access to all the wires) and then I've sat the LOC behind the very front of the passenger kick panel. Fits just nicely, my one anyway, a different sized one may or may not still fit! But all the speaker wires are there RCA's..I have ran 2 sets down to the rear for if I ever run an amp for the speakers and if I ever did, I'd need to run more of course for the front, but alot shorter due to LOC being up the front of the car. 1 set per speaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
