there's a lot of debate on this one. I've always ran them atleast a few feet apart.

run the power wire on whatever side is easiest, remote and RCA's can go down the middle.

If you're going to do the install, do it right. If not, you'll get the annoying "alternator" noise.
17' of rca cable is plenty, even for a van.

i am talking 17ft of power not rca cable adn i already tryed to run it on the opp side its way to short so its going to have to go down the middle some how adn ill be lucky if it will work then because of all the little room inbetween everything.unless i take it all back out and run teh rca cabls down the middle because they are alot smaller and the power wire on the side.

different quick question (but Zulkir can benefit as well):

what if, in the trunk, the power, ground, and speaker wires end up criss crossing over one another (basically touching)? Bad? no biggie?

thanks, everyone.

run the power cable on the side whe it goes through the firewall.It should be long enough.
