    lol my 1000 watt mono amp i have a 4 g wire running and i’ve been told to go to 0 gauge. i would if it wasn’t so expensive. it a large jump from 4 gauge to 0 and i spent all my money already lol.

    hes right man bigger amps can call for a larger diameter wire. Like my Power Acoustic its a 2000w amp and calls from 6-4 g wire where as a smaller say 250w amp would call for a 14-10g

    larger gauge wire for bigger amp!?!?!? you fucking tool. . . size has nothing to do with power output of an amp and the larger the wire the smaller the gauge example 0 gauge is larger than 4 gauge. . . i think the roids shrunk his brain along with his ball. . .

    All this stupid videos are just showing how to unplug the old and plug the new one. even a caveman can do that, show me how to know (test /check) wich cable is what if the stereo was stolen and there is not connector/harnnes just a bunch of cuted off cables . That would be useful.

    whatever one u want to put it doesnt matter. . just make sure they match left to left and right to right so that would be like black and black are right and white and white are left. . colors dont matter there just for labeling

    its a problem with the radio theres no way the wiring could effect wether a cd reads or not

    if your stock unit has RCA outputs and remote then no u dont need to replace but it probably doesnt so it will require u to buy a new unit that will look cooler too. its is possible to wire an amp in with stock units that dont have RCA outputs or remote but its too fidly and rather pointless, involves cutting a few wires you might not wanna cut. but check ur unit, if it has RCA’s and remote then ur to go with no need to replace, hope this makes sense
