you can get an amp kit at autozone for 20-30 that is not too bad. IT has the ring terminals as well as the fuse and fuse holder, rcas spkr wire etc....

i've never put one in before. but i'm a fast learner and good with directions. i'm just trying to think of where i want to mount the amp and how i want it to look. will the amp have a diagram showing me how to wire the amp up to the radio and speakers?


Later the same day - Got home from work and the amp is here now. Damn it looks pretty. LOL! Gonna go buy the install kit probably 2morrow. I'll let you guys know if I run into any trouble.

man I have never seen anyone set themself up for failure this nicely.....

There should be a grommet on the drivers side high in the firewall to get the power through.

Where are you going to mount the amp? The back, of the back seat is not too hard of a place.

Sweet! Done! Finished! So freaking happy right now. It took me longer than it probably should've, about 6-7 hours total in the span of two days, but who cares. Most of that was, "Hmmm....how am I gonna do this." But it's done now and works beautifully. A lot louder than before too. Turn the radio up about half of what I use to. Here's some pics of the finished product.
