where's the best place to ground? i'm running a sub and 4 door component speakers. i tried the ground in the trunk with the light ground, but it buzzed. is there a better more solid ground from the seat. if so can someone post a pic for me. thanks guys

pull up the rear seats and ground to the screw that holds one of the seat buckles. cant get any better than that.

do you happen to know the bolt size?

jwb6658 · 09-17-2008, 05:27 PM

its quite easy to figure it out. you can literally have the back seat out in 1 minute. there is a 10mm bolt right where the center passenger and right passenger clickers are located. after that bolt is out just pull up hard on the rear seat and its out. you will spend the most time trying to find the bolt.

i have an 07 lx sedan and you can go thruthe fender on the drivers side, remove the trim in the engine bay around the fender, feed it down by the drivers side door hinge, pull back the plastic cover in the wheel well, and theres a black plug in the body that puts your wire right behind the fuse box near your foot rest/clutch

seems kind of complicated, how did you take the center console off?
