I don’t understand what the rca cables are for if I’m going to use the 9 wire speaker cable. Could explain that please? Great video and thank you.
That power cable ugly af, would be embarrassed to pop the hood. The ground connection is just a joke. Speaker wiring solid though.
Got my audio system installed yesterday by AI TINT and I love how deep the bass sounds. 2 10’s DDAUDIO
Didn’t made no group loop noise ?
Odd question, but do the wiring colors of the 9 conductor cable match with the Honda? Or did you find a wiring diagram/use the diagram from the head unit?
Best shallow mount subwoofer can satisfy us for that's own bass and smoothly sound quality. So we are here with some powerful bass provider's.

Im trying to run 4 door speakers and an sub off of a 5 channel amp. Im trying to decide whether or not to swap out the stock head unit. If I don't swap it out, what would I need to make the connection to the amp?
Hey Clean installation! Well from the looks of it anyhow, given the fact that I myself, am New to the car audio world. Question, can I run a 5 channel amplifier 4 infinity speakers, and a 12" Alpine subwoofer with only 1 set of RCA preamp outputs on my Alpine head unit….? Thanks! Your answer will be very much Appreciated!
Thats confusing, i accidentally turned my speakers into a car
First step should always be disconnecting the battery.. but good vid. Wiring the same car. Thanks
How would I install a Clarion Eq with this setup?
very helpful for a n00b like me thank you
Is the wire harness even needed for a sub install if you don’t need to do the door speakers?
Great video thank you
thanks for the video! had subs in my old car kept them and i decided to wire myself this time. Super helpful 3 years later
Actually amazing, I’m new to speakers and this is gonna save my life
hey, where was that ground that you used?
What wire did you connect the sub to the amp

What can I do to improve sound quality in my system….2008 scion xd. kenwood dxx395 head unit polk db speakers. cerwin vega 10. nvx 5 channel.
You should always attach the ground cable before the positive on the battery. Doing this will allow all electricity to ground out right away and not hold charge. That's what causes the shock when you connect the negative after the positive. Easy was to short out your modules.
From the look of those battery terminals, a big 3/4 upgrade might be a good idea, or at least new connectors on the ends … mine barely has enough reach as it is, and at this age, new cables are cheap enough and wouldn't hurt.
Might be a good idea to run your remote wire before putting the head unit bacc in jus sayn
My amp shorted my battery:( why is that?
Thanks for the vid. Helped with finding the spot to get through the fire block. What did you make your rear deck out of? I need to make a new one. The stock one is kind of flimsy
While the power cable is sitting in the engine bay. Don't you need some kind of heat protection from the engine?
You didn't show us however install the fuse
