I wish to install a CD player in the boot of my car. Is there a recommended route for the wire? Does anyone have experience of this?

Any help much appreciated.

Just stuff it up the centre console, then under the back seat.

As Gazzer says, that's about the easiest option. The base of the centre console pulls out easily so you shouldn't have any problems there. Take the base of the rear seat off by removing the two bolts...

Another option may be to mount the changer under the passenger seat? That's where mine is and it seems to work well. Also means that I change discs more often and that someone would have to remove the seat to nick the thing

ran mine down passenger side under carpet, just remove plastic door trim and put wire down the side of the carpet. took rear seat base out (2 bolts) and wire access into boot was then sorted. if you need a earth, plenty of metal there to get one.

hope this helps,

Hello,

I ran mine beside the passenger seat as well. There is a plastic trough with a few wires, but also the brake pipes. There is a posibillity that this is not OK because the pipes mey get hot under repeated heavy repeated (every day!!) But my CD/AMP leads are there and they are fine.

Cheers for all your help.

Got everything installed and I am very impressed with the results. It only took a matter of minutes to sort out the lead thanks to all your help.
