Crimp Connections
Purchase crimp connectors and crimping
tool. Connectors are color coded.
1. Strip 1/4 inch (6mm) of insulation from
both wires.
2. Insert into connector.
3. Crimp tightly.
You can make permanent splices (using butt
connectors) or select connectors that can be
removed and reinstalled.

Speaker and Power Wires
Do not run speaker and power wires next to
each other. Power wires can generate a
“siren” sound in the speakers. Run speaker
and power wires on opposite sides of the car.

Securing Wires
Be proud of your installation! Use wire ties to
bundle wires together when possible. (But
never bundle speaker wires and power wires
together!)
Secure loose wires to the vehicle to make
sure they don’t rub or rattle.
Installing in Trunk
When installing the amplifier in the trunk, run
the power wires along the same path as the
other vehicle wiring. Many cars have insulated
channels for wiring. You will have to remove
the door sill trim and the carpet.
