Where is the best place to get 4gauge, 16gauge, fuses, etc for a stereo install for decent prices. I am doing my own install and I don't want to spend an arm and a leg.

Also, if anyone has any idea how much to buy if I want to go from the Battery to the glove box with 4 and glove box t door and rear speakers with 16.

Fry's, Best Buy, Radio Shack, last place try a stereo shop. Get at least 4 guage. But it depends how much power your going to run. If its over 1000watts maybe 2 guage. From the speakers to that amp 10 or 8 is probably sufficient.

going to the meet.

Thanks barthelb
I tried those places but was somewhat unimpressed with th price per foot. I used to buy at ITC in So Cal and the prices were much better back then.

I'll have to bite the bullet. Thanks for the length stuff too.

I am going with a 800w Hiphonics five channel amp, I am setting it up for 3 channel mode 200 x 2 @ 4 and 300 x 1 @ 1, it has 4 gauge hook ups right on it so 4 should be fine.


If I am real lucky, I can come to the meet in the morning, I'll need to be home by 2:00pm, but it is better than nothing.

I don't think my install will be ready by then though, I am hoping at the very least that I will have sound.
