Another way to do it is to run them (RCA and speaker) up the middle, under the center console...then break out the duct tape to hold them flat, and runt them under the carpet, under the rear seat and into the trunk.

It should keep the wiring run a few feet shorter....just an alternative method to the one above.

Yea i want 2 go through the sides, but last my 4 gauge wouldnt fit (on an eclipse) so i had to go through the center, which will be a bitch causei have gsr leather seats, so im gonna have to find a createive way to get under them and into the trunk.

yup...

no matter where you run them, keep power and audio wires as far apart as possible. no LONG parallel runs...
