[QUOTE="browntruckracer, post: 292550, member: 10653"] guys, we all need to be real careful when wiring these radios in the pkge cars. if they are not correctly they could cause a fire and then they demand for all the radios to be removed. there is power available underneath the dash in every pkge car even the old ones. do not have any wires on display to be tripped over or in the way when the mechanics are doin repairs. if you are in good with your mechanic give him a little something to help u get it properly installed. if you are doing it yourself make sure you put a fusible link somewhere on the positive side and make sure you dont route the wires somewhere they will be crimped by metal, this is what will cause a fire. i have installed many car audio systems so if you have any questions feel free to ask. i had a fellow UPSer who has a cabinet shop build a box then i install a car head unit and 2 5 1/4 inch speakers. it sits comfortibly on the dash held down with 2 bungy cords. i drive a 700 so there is power available underneath the dash with gator clips attached to them. AND A 20AMP FUSIBLE LINK. [/QUOTE]
