I havnt had a chance to bolt my amp ground yet and i went to ace hardware and bought a screw and washer and some sand paper
Hmm...Where exactly did you place yuour grounds?? Im curious. On my big 3 i used 0 gauge tsunami oxygen free compotition power wire and i ran one ground to the bolt that is on the alternator bracket and the other ground to the frame. Are these good spots?? You mentioned adding more grounds. Hmm... Where and how?? THNX

Hey, on my 2 door, i used the bolt used to hold the spare tire holder down... i sanded the floor down to bare metal, replaced the black bolt with a regular steel bolt (just as a stupid precaution) and painted the head black. I also mounted the amps to a piece of MDF that i also mounted my sub box to.. This way if i need to take it out, it comes out as one and i'm not messing with any of the interior or drilling (IMO) unnecessary holes into it.. look in the jack location and see if there are any bolts for there

the grounds are not needed but i just always have since i ran to big of a system and ran into issues. (it was running 24k rms in a shop comp vehicle) but i just use a couple 6 inch peices of 8 gauge wire with crimp on eyes on each end, sand down spot on frame - shoot self tapper - sand chassis spot (i try to find bent weld points so no screw going up through floor) and shoot another self tapper. i then go back and seal with a under coating of some sort to protect against corrosion.

In my 2dr Model in between the two back seats there is a bolt covered by a plastic cap, I just wired it to that and it looks very clean because the amp sits on the box right over the gap

I attached mine to the taillight grounds that are attached to the rear pillars...seems to work well idk if it's the best idea though

the problem was actually the amps cap thats inside the amp im getting it repaired by kicker $60 and $8 parts thanks for the feed back

I had mine there up until last week. Put it at the seat bolt location and its 100x better. Wasn't able to have my system that loud at idle but now I can crank it pretty loud and NOOOOO voltage drop.

wait what exactly did this do? allowed you to play it louder and no voltage drop?? why??

Its all in the ground. The better the ground the better the outcome. Yours is behind the plastic right behind the brake light right? Small little self taping screw? If the wire is bigger than 12 gauge than that screw is too small. Its not that I can play it louder its just better for your system.
