ive jus fitted my sub kit to my ep2.firstly. try an buy a kit thats matched in terms of watts. in my car the battery's on the driver side of the car.it makes sense to route your power cable to the amp via the drivers side sill,

jack the car up.
remove the wheel & covering inside the arch. be carefull with the pins holdin on the coverin cause they will crack
get your power cable an looking in from the bonnett ul see to the left, just inside the wing a hole.feed the power cable in this hole an you should c it coming out inside the wing, lookin in from the wheel.
then look for a black cable which is the bonnett popper cable. above where that cables comin out ul c a clear colour'd grommet. make a slit in it an feed the cable through into the c*ck pit.it'll come out by the accelerator pedal. then simply throw it over the seats an then begin the pre outs. remove the head unit from the car.drop the glove box down then feed the pre out cable up in behind the glove box. then itll come out by the head unit an simply do the same with the remote cable.

throw the wires to the back seat now.
ground the amp by using sand paper and 1 bolt.
power up the amp an ensure its working correctly before begingin to hide any of the wires.
start at the front an jus slip the remote cable and pre out cable under the plastic. do the same with the power cable at the other side of the car.

trust me !! this way warks with very little hastle.
done it myself an delighted wit the results.
will get picsup over the weekend when d cars polished :twisted:)


let me know what che think pls.
oh an by the way my alloys r white an my roofs white 2, jus did some photoshoppin .. ha

I am wondering how to hide the cables under the trim near the back seats. The trim is tight along the door and stuff, but when it gets to that 90 angle bit of trim, right next to the seat it's impossible to tuck underneath. How did you manage it?
