Tips on wiring my amp!

Hey guys, So I got my subs all hooked up and put into my hatch box.
All I have left to do is run my power and ground cables.

I need some tips on where to run my power cord to, any idea's?

I also need to know where there is a good place to run a ground cable to, any idea's?

Thanks guys,
Kevin.

*Note* I have a 1992 Z-28, I'm running two 12' MA Audio Subs, and a MA Audio HK amp, hope this information helps.

Re: Tips on wiring my amp!

For running the power wire, depending on the size of the wire you used. You may be able to run it through an existing grommet. Or if your using too big of wire to make it fit, you can drill a hole and use a grommet and seal it up good after you get the wire through.

For the ground, that depends on where you're mounting the amp. Basically you just want to keep the ground wire short, and connect it to a clean piece of metal on the car.
