Just remove the screw that hold each plastic piece to the floor, and then run it inside the small groove you will uncover. Run power down one side, and RCA down the other.... not together Ray '99 CSVT - Silver #222/276 In a constant state of blow-off euphoria.

Unless the screws are stripped out like mine were. The pieces are flexible enough to tuck the wire under... I ran 4 gauge with out unscrewing them! Originally posted by Ray: Run power down one side, and RCA down the other.... not together I would suggest runnning the power down the drivers side obviously, same side as battery. And run the RCA's and Remote together down the passenger side. You can fish those from the back of the HU behind the glove compartment with no troubles and it will come out very clean. As far as getting the wires into the trunk. Run them however you want. I'm sure there are quite a few ways to do it. Just find some trim or panel piece to tuck it behind so it looks clean.
