Need Help With Install...
So, going from a fairly small install to a larger one and have no idea on some things. So my install is going to be in a 2006 Lancer Ralliart, I intend to have 2LCD Head rest screens, 2 12"Subs, powered by two seperate MONO Amps, 1 Speaker Amp, PS2 and some lights...
So I was thinking, run 0Gauage to the back of the car to a 2.4Farad Cap, then split this into 2, 2Gauge wires, which then split into 2, 4Gauge Wires going to their own fuses and amps... then having them all grounded with a distribuion block... Have i missed anything out, obviously there will be a fuse by the bat. Because i have a pair of RCAs coming from the headunit SUB output and then i need it to go into 2 sub amps, can i just use a RCA splitter there or is there some device i need?
So on one of the 4Gauge outputs i was hoping to run some lights and so forth... How do i power my PS2 Inverter, and 2 LCD monitors... Can i just take more leads off the Cap?? From my understanding, the monitors have a wiring harness but i have no idea how easy this is to hardwire in and the same with the Inverter for the PS2, i mean how do fuse it? Is it easy to split the PS2 output? Do i need anything for that or is it just an RCA splitter to feed to both monitors?
Never done anything this big before so please help, any input is better than nothing! Thanks, CJ

Why don't you just buy one big amp for both of your subs? I mean you can do it your way but I personally think 1 sub amp and 1 speaker amp would be a smarter idea than having a seperate amp for each sub. You will probly get mocked by a couple other people because you said you are going to buy a capacitor. Every single person I have talked to (internet and car audio dealers) say that caps are a big waste of money.

Well the thing is, i already have a capacitor as the audio guy i spoke to said it will make a difference on the subs punch, plus it also acts as a distribution block for me... also, again, i already have a sub amp and thaught it would look better plus cost a lot less just to get another one. Thanks anyway
