ok, I got the power wire run from the back up to the front, but not connected yet, since I still have other stuff to do. Anyway, I was wondering...can I run the RCA's in the same place as I run the remote wire, or will the remote wire cause interference?

Yea you can it will be fine. But why not run the remote wire next to the power wire since its going to be hooked up the same side of your amp?

No the RCA's are most likely shielded and the remote wire doesn't have much of an effect anyway. JMO

I already have run the power wire, and I don't want to have to go through that again. Plus, I am basically just RE-running my remote with better wire than before. So it is a lot easier to run my RCA's with the remote. Plus by doing it that way I can run a straight run from the radio back to the amp by going through the center console instead of having to go under 1/2 the dash and then around the outside edge, then back to the center to get to the amp.

Ohh ok well you will be fine. Some ppl swear that running rcas next to power wire effects it but then others say its just a myth. Just to be safe i always run my power wire away from my rcas.

well, now that I know the wires that I need to hook into....should I use taps or just cut the wires on the factory harness? I'm thinking taps, cause whenever I trade the car in, I will have to hook the back speakers back up.

if you turn you amp to the other side you will save cable and look much cleaner, JMO
i dont like to cut wires, but if i have to i will. if you use taps it will be eadier to change in the future...

power and ground are already run...and the way I am running everything, it will still be clean..almost all the wire is going to be hidden, except where it comes out from under the back seat and goes to the amp
