wiring to the trunk: why do you have to run wiring to trunk?

Because the main radio itself (and corresponding hookups) are in the trunk. What is in the dash is only a cd/tape player and buttons that run the radio.

Why would you need to see behind your vehicle if you are going forward? Why would you hardwire something that you can install wireless?

Yes I will be ok to use. You just run your power wire from the cars battery to your new one then you ground it in the trunk and wire up your amps to the battery in the trunk

It depends on what type of wires you are using. I use it for running speaker wires for the rear surround speakers, but it will depend on what type of speaker wires you happen to be using. I only have 2 wires inside since I have 2 rear speakers. I don't know though if you are using monster cables.

It depends on the size of your wire and the length of the run from the battery to the switch to the light. For Automotive application, I would use a relay. Mine is NOT used in an automotive application. I have a run of about 10 feet from battery, through a fuse, to the switch, and then to the light. I am using 10 gauge wire though. I only did it this way because I can not afford the additional power consumed by the relay itself. In a vehicle, the power consumed by the relay is not a problem since the alternator will generate ample power.

it's designed to hook directly to the battery with very heavy cables similar to regular battery cables that go to the starter, it won't work with normal wire like goes to a cig lighter.

You don't. It is only used to fuse the positive lead/s and there is really no need to either. Depending on what you are using it for like in a boat or something else that you cannot ground, then you would need to run a negative connection to each item to be activated. In the case of an automobile, you ground the chassis and then run your positive wire to what ever controller, such as a switch or fuse that you have in the circuit/s.

If you're talking about an automobile I'm sure you could directly connect to the fuse box and give it his own fuse if you want to spend that much time running wire. As far as running it inside of the house you still need a power supply purchase from them

Not in my Forester. I have a dome light switch that is controlled next to the hatch. I guess it depends vehicle to vehicle. If you're worried about it, just detach the cables from your car battery.

You don't need to drill holes it's a magnet! Run the wire through the trunk were the rubber piece is at! That way you don't have to worry about drilling any holes! Good luck Man

It's actually correct and safer for the negative cable to be attached to a strong ground on the car as opposed to being connected directly to the battery's negative terminal. (This is how to properly connect jumper cables to the auto your jumping, as well. Most do not do this or are not aware.)

Depends on the year of the vehicle. Earlier vehicles you will cut and tape the wire for the light . Later vehicles the light goes through the Computer and nothing can be done to put the light out. Read the Instructions for your Specific Application. The switch in the trunk Must be left ON when you are finished the installation on later models Because the switch affects the Power Steering Sensors.

I'd guess turning it on when the power goes on to your car would be just fine, just fine a 12v switched signal and wire it to the same output. the only issue this would have is that if you didn't have the radio on it would still run. If you do that a lot, you could wire an in-line switch

Make sure you have the right connector for you vechile! Read the enclosed instruction and follow. My installation took me about 25 minutes! Of course I had to remove 2 trunk panels! Good luck!

I don't have a trunk I have a pickup truck and I wired it by following the lines that lead to my tail lights etc.

It is hard wired to existing wiring or you will have to run wiring and switch yourself.

Purchase a 12V adapter and connest or just hardwire and mount in the trunk or any area you choose. Easy only two wires.
