you really only need 4 gauge wire unless you're running some serious power

I run 0 gauge in my car. I ran the power wire down the passenger side and my signal cables down the driver side. Theres a hole in the firewall below the glovebox with a rubber sleeve, I just fed my wire through that. Then, just pull up the trim on the sides and run the cable under the carpet, there in just enough room for it to fit.. Just find your way to the trunk , its pretty easy to do. I think you have to loosen the seat belt bolts too.

Exactly how I did it..just ran it like I would any other power wire..there's enough room under the panels to fit 1/0 Guage..Although..if you need 0 Guage wire..you better have a High output alternator..otherwise 4 guage is more than you'll ever need...
