is300_519 Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Hey everyone, I am a proud new owner of a 04 IS300 and loving it! Just put a AVIC-D3 unit in and now would like to add my sub and amp to complete the sound I am longing for. Any information that could help me run the wires from my amp to the battery would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
smooth1 Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 What set up are you going with? I used the JL Audio cables and inline fuses, worked great and no issues.

smooth1 Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 I have a used install kit if you need. I used V8 post clamp and inline fuse. Then ran it along the firewall just under the windshield line and covered it with black leech. Then ran the power line thru the same hole most of the other cables and wires go in, I just made the opening a little larger in the rubber gromet they originally used from the factory. Then I slid the wires behind the console next to the gas pedal, and ran the power feed under the carpet all the way back to the trunk where I mounted the 2 Alpine Vpower amps on the back seat wall. You'll need to remove the passenger seat, and the back seat so you can run all the wires cleanly and make sure you don't have any kinks or cut areas.
flop170 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 if you take out the battery and battery tray there is a grommet under there that's really easy to push wires through the fire wall.... that's how i did it... the avic rocks!!! woot woot
