If you haven't already sorted the amp heres the list of wiring that needs doing:

Power cable from battery to amp

Earth cable from amp to chassis

RCA cable from headunit to amp (red and white connectors)

Remote cable from headunit to amp (usually blue)


Then run a speaker cable from amp +/- to crossover input +/- then from crossover woofer output +/- to woofer then crossover tweeter output +/- to tweeter


Does that make any sense? lol if you can post up a pic of the crossover box i can try and make it a bit easier to understand


Does you crossover box have outputs for 2 woofers and 2 tweeters? If not then i guess you'd have to double up the speaker/tweeter connections, but not sure if this will work?

My Hertz ones didn't have conventinal crossover boxes...weird

Two output makes it easy then just follow my instructions and repeat the final speaker/tweeter connection for both sides

If you get stuck PM a pic of the box and i'll try my best to help (better still bring the car over sunday and i'll give you a hand...anything to see it in person )

naah i havent going for another saxo vtr now mate just trying to find the right one at a good price atm. original plan was to get a vts but insurance is to high for my fancy lol. shold be going down abit of a smooth euroish route and slightly track bit of a mish mash i know but i have some tasty plans .
haha thought i saw u scoffing ur face
good luck on a feature anyway the car is certainly unique enough smart enough and had plenty of hard work into it so think itd be well deserved tbh

[jeffchiz]

wiring an amp to comps is pretty easy just time consuming as u have to rip out the interior to do it properly

[Lewis_Howse]

Good picture with the police car behind

[Andyc123]

Lol, cheers! Thanks for the help guys. Have been working on seats all day.

Still not sitting perfect. But they do look damn cool!

Will get it done tomorrow. So no pica yet !!

[Joe]

[benkelsall]

[Andyc123]

Hey

Andy
