[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8862331, member: 576029"] Using 14/2 CL3 rated speaker wire, I ran two pairs of 14/2 and 9-wire from the amps in the rear driver’s side trunk corner to the factory head unit module. I also ran two pairs of 14/2 to each dash corner. This jacketed cable has protection but is stiff enough that it can rattle against the aluminum CLD layer. So I laid down CCF to keep it isolated then secured the wiring with CCF strips to keep it flat. I used Tessa Tape where the wiring is routed without CCF isolation.

I determined lengths by routing them from the trunk to the front, using velco wire ties to keep them tidy.
