Where to route the wires?

I think im going to put my amp behind my rear seat in my 07 scab. If someone has already done this where did you run the power/RCA's/remote wires? I have heard that you can pull up the sills and put them unde there. I havent ried anything yet im just wanting suggestions.

thanks

That's where I put mine last night. I run it all down the passenger side but I might move the rca's to the driver side b/c the sills don't go all the way down in 1 spot.

Your RCA's should be seperated from your 12V+ Power wire.

Run them in the opposite sill trough. This prevents any interference or line noise from the power wire from finding it's way into the RCA.

Or, you can do the insane thing like me, and remove all the seats and lift the carpet. Then you can run the lines right down the middle along the side of the 'center tunnel'. This shortens the lines by at least a good 2 meters. At today's copper prices, that's pretty significant! (but it's ALOT more work than just running in the sill plates)
