I'm doing a install on my cavilier this weekend. I need to run three sets of rca's to the trunk. What length rca's will I need ? Also where are the good spots to runn the power wire throught the fire wall ?
BTW it's a 2002 Coupe.
Thanks guys.

The power wire goes throught the grommet on the driverside. Cant miss it, its about the size of your fist.
The rca's are 15 ft i believe, but last time i ran mine were over a year ago.

Thanks, I havn't taken it apart yet, so instead of searching for the existing gromount I figured someone on here would know where they where. Also Thanks on the info for the rca's I just didn't want to have an extra ten feet of wire to hide. I thought maybe I could get away with 9ft'ers but I don't wanna come up short. I think I'm going to run them straight down the middle of the car.
If anyone knows if I can get 9fter's to work, lmk.
Thanks.

Yea it's stock,
Yea I know Stock sux.
I couldn't get 12 footers to the trunk of my cavy so i dont think you'll have much luck with nine.
Don't dig on the newb's sig!!!
I know that my 18fters are too long - I would think 15 feet would be enough to get you to the back of the trunk and still allow you to hide the wire behind all body panels.
The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.

Very cool, I'll go with the 15ft'ers I hope they work out well.

15 ft was a little bit too long, but you should be able to make it.
i have 16.5 ft RCAs i'll sell you super cheaper. Monster Cables so they are good quality...pm me if your interested
I used 15's as well. Any shorter is difficult to work with, any longer is overkill unless you're going to mount the EQ or amps on your trunk lid
I got 9ft rca's, but my brain to my HU is under my passenger seat, and the amps are in the back seat.
anywhere from 15-18should be fine.

I used a 10 footer (3 meters). It goes from the HU, pulled just about tight, straight down the middle of the car, which is a complete bitch to do, and my amp in on the driver's side of the trunk. I have about 6" extra cable. So it's close, but I did it. Depends on where you're going to put the amp I guess.
