How did you get your cables from the trunk to the head unit? Also, besides your way, whats the EASIEST way?

The easiest is probably to run them from your head unit, down to the center column, then to the floor, under the seat and to the trunk.

The way I did mine was I took out the driver's side molding and pulled the carpet back. Put them under the carpet and then under the seat and to the trunk. No wires showing.

All I did was take off the driver's side door sill trim. The wires tucked eatly away.

I'll asume you meant to saY "neatly", i hope. Any ways, i ran my cable under the sill but how do you get it from the front seeat /glove box area to your head unit?

Neatly, yes.

I ran the wires forward in the center console, then pulled the carpet up a little in the driver's footwell area behind the pedals, then around the side of the car all under the carpet or trim.

You can go above and behind the glove box fairly easy. I only ran a toslink and sony propietary cable (unilink i think) to the EQ. I had a total of 54" of RCAs in my car.

The tech that installed my stuff removed the drivers seat and trim next to the door. it looks really messy when they work, but it hides everything well, and tehy probably put it back together better than it came from factory..lol

I had my power cable under the drivers side trim and my speaker wires under the passenger side trim. If you pull the back seat bottom out, you can pull the RCAs under the carpet without removing anything using an electricians fish tape if you are careful and patient.

i just pushed it under the passenger side kick plate thingy, didnt take out any screws, than i pushed it through inbetween the bottom and top of seat on teh outside of the bottom of the seatbelt, no wires showing, 5 mins to do.
