ok....mount your ground wire, wich should be at least 8 AWG to the shock mount, it is a better location as you could short out and blow your tailight bulbs. Also, make sure your fuses are all in good working condition. The ground wire should be a max of 3 feet long. If you have a 8 AWG power wire you will need a min. 8 AWG ground wire. ALWAYS ground the amp down away from other parts of your car. Make sure the remote wire is connected to your radio as well. If you have the stock radio in your car then all you need is to find a 12 volt source that comes on when the vehicle is on. Simple.
