any car audio shop comes to mind just put an 80 amp fuse with in 18 inchs of the battery. future shop and best buy too but you have to buy audio wiring packages though audio shop you can get it by the foot. Mael ---

Its been working mint since day one. Future shop or BB is going to cost an arm and a leg for cable… and I would put money on it that the quality of cable is the same or lower then the PA cable. ---

This may or may not help you, but I went and got the brackets needed from Canadian Tire. A Boat Battery Box from there as well. The cables came from a sound system installation kit I got for $70 from an electronics store. All in all, it came out as a clean install and cost was roughly $100. ---

yeah also you can hit up the surplus electronics stores and grab cable for cheap i think i paid 30 for al lthe wire i needed, grab some nice terminals from cdn tire, i’m a fan of lead terminals… i personally run a sealed battery so have been lazy about a battery box, but when i get home i’ll be grabbing one of those marine ones… or making it out of an ammo box still undecided ---

one of the things that i’m effed with is that I THOUGHT the stock cable was 4 gauge… my summit racing relocation kit was 0 gauge… so i went over to NA electronics and picked up a distribution block, 120 anl fuse, 0 gauge to 2, 4 gauge… now i’m effed because clearly… the 1 gauge won’t fit into the 4 gauge ports… so I’m thinking of splicing the 1 gauge into two wires to fit into the 2, 4 gauge ports… sigh… what a mess. ---
