Power Connection

[supafly]

Where do I connect an amp power cable in the Yaris? Do I have have to connect it directly to the Battery, or is there a better way?

I know a lot of you have done it, so if someone could give me a quick guide on this it would be great.

The best way, but sometimes not the easiest way, is direct from the Battery

Don't forget, FUSE THE CABLE within 18" from the Battery so you can find it easily if it blows. And as a safety rule

With connecting direct from the Battery, it can prevent other problems from arising as well,

such as, humming & whinning noises, and with the current the amp could be drawing, it could overload the cabling you was going to attach it to within the car, can blow anything that was attached to that wiring loom.

Be safe

Cheers. Could I have more detail like where to put the cable. Do I need to a hole? etc

Is there an easier way?

so are you saying just after the fuse for the power cable for tha amp and earth, what capacitor size, is 1F enough

[jaxx]

yep connect it straight to the positive side of the Battery and as bing says make sure theres an ample fuse with a foot or so of the terminal

as for gettin into the cabin - there is a big rubber gromit on the passenger side of the bulk head with a load of wires going through the middle and two 'nipple' things either side.

chop one of them off and itll feed through nicely
