Hi I think your best bet would be to follow the fuel line

[haider786]

isnt it bad as it could like ionise or something the fuel its really dangerous neva play with fuel LOL

[kenney]

I do take it, you will be using an insolated wire?????,and most of the fuel lines are plastic,no real problem.

[haider786]

wheres the fuel line located dumb question but please answer it new to cars haha

[kenney]

The fuel line runs from the engine to the fuel tank,under the car.this will give you easy access to the boot,rather than running the wire through the interior.What are you going to use the positive feed for?But anyway it goes without saying, no matter how or were you place the wire,it has to be fused and protected

safest way would be to push through an existing grommet in the bulk head an run down the side in the inside of the car. under the carpet. easlily done if your prepared to take up the trim running across the bottom of the doors. make sure you run the rca's down the opposite side aswel, or ul get interference from the alternator. Otherwise if your planning a big install, use another battery and a split charge relay to charge it when being used.

I would not run the power cable under the car, unless you have some sort of protection you can get this flexible tubing called kopex, it is like your shower hose only stronger, and it is covered in a black plastic so it is water resistant, i use a lot of it being and electrical engineer, very good stuff, very flexible
