Thank you SP, that is exactly what I was hinting.

NS...keep us in the loop about what you're doing.

One further comment. Don't scrimp too much on the wire. With all the electronics in today's cars, you really should get a good shielded speaker wire. You can pick up signals or worse yet, introduce a signal into your cars system. The later would be rare, but for the pennies extra, its VERY cheap insurance.I really only want to go to the effort of running this stuff once if I can avoid it. Take the time, spend a couple of bucks extra the first time and its done , and done right ....period.
