When you install a custom car audio system you need to add another power wire to connect your battery and alternator to the new aftermarket amplifiers and other new gear. But if you make common mistakes you can loose hundreds of watts of power output… What wire should we use, how large should wire be, and more in this “Car Audio Power Wire – Do’s and Don’ts” Video.

as someone who has done this before, a good habit is to buy 1 size larger than what you think you need cuz you always want more power and will end up going bigger down the road. and rerunning that power wire can be a PITA. you dont wanna have to do it twice.
I normally love to do things myself and gain the learning experience, but ive been a bit overwhelmed with it all. I’m going to let the pros handle this one. It’s been great to gain the general knowledge that I will forget by next year, but it will also be nice to drop my car and hardware off and pick it up after it’s done!
I’m glad that’s a good amp wire kit. That’s the exact 4 gauge OFC kit I bought. Just got it in the other day but haven’t opened the box yet. Will next week when I start my install
You sir, are HIM. The man I’ve been looking for to give me the confidence to wire my own audio into my T5.1. Excellent content 🙂
