sub box wiring guide for blobeye model
planning on fiiting a vibe sub box to my subaru sti blobeye 2004 model does any on no any guides on here links or other sites many thanks
need a simple idea of were to feed the earth wire from battery to boot/sub box any tips ideas |
You don't need to take the earth wire from battery to the boot just find a good earth point in the boot close to where you will have the amp.

going TO the boot - down one side of the car under carpet:
Power lead direct from battery, inline fuse near battery, Remote turn on wire from your stereo on other side: Rca (pre out leads) from stereo. connect to the amp,and run a short length of earth cable(or power lead,but mark with tape so you know which is which!) to a bolt with a washer through the little metal hole just inside your boot near rear light,but under the carpet. get some sand paper and remove the paint here other wise you wont get a good connection. like this http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...109_163701.jpg hope that helps p.s ignore the mess of leads...i need to sort it out! only been in 19 months:lol1: p.s, thats a power cap in the pic |

oh lol, there is a big(i mean big) grommet that some leads already go through the bulkheadto the right of the intercooler,cut that rubber a lil more if needs be and feed the wire through there, then its just a matter of getting trim off and carpet up and feeding the wires to the boot.easy enough:thumb:
http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...508_203201.jpg you can see from this,its the thick blue wire from the battery |
i ran my power wire under the car and in under the back seat. but i use 0 awg 50mm2. i've got a 1600w rms amp and 2 x 12'' rockford dvc subs.
no offence, but i would take the power cap out. they don't really help. |
Is that gromet in the same place for a 99 wrx?

tomdscooby, i've just noticed that you haven't changed to earth wire from the batt to chassis. it should be the same size as the power cable you are using.
