where do i get wires from to hook up my remote wire from my amp to the back of the deck and the same with the battery wire or do i hook up the battery wire to the amp to the car engine? someone please write back thanks
Your remote wire should be at least 20 guage. You hook the amps + wire to the + of the car battery, and the - wire to the chassis of the car. Also, the - wire should be as short as possible.

for the remote line u can use a regular speaker wire and u attach it w/e u want to the back of your head unit (radio) to the blue wire or it should say power for the 12v cable you take w/e gauge wire u need like 8 gauge for amps under 1200w i think it is and run it to your positive battery terminal the ground wire u take a piece 6" or less of the same wire u used for your 12v and attach it to screw or some metal peice thats bolted onto the cars main body
u can buy wires all over just look for wires that say amp kit
and the rca cables go to the back of your head unit to the rca cable input in your amp
also u need a fuse for your 12v wire it should be close to your battery within a couple of inches like this
|______|+ ===||fuse||==============||amp|| |batery| |______|- its pretty simple
With anything over 1500 watts i would prob go even larger then 4 gauge power and ground just to be on the safe side. Anything less then 1500 then 4 gauge should be fine.
