This should work, right? I think I should be all set with this kit. Amp came with RCA to Amp cables. I got line converter coming too. With flattening flash, it should be straight forward.

Those 20 ft rca cables are too long. Don't think that's off wire or it would state it.. CCA I'd bet

Most guys on here run the metra. I just installed two metra kits on my glide
