Default Help with cables

Can't find these items at any local shop and Des Moines is over an hour away. Any help on an online store with either Amazon or Ebay would be great!

Need per UltraNutz:

1.) about 6ft of 8ga power wire and a AGC fuse holder (30A fuse) to place near the battery on this power wire.

2.) do not use thick collared RCA cables. The thickness will interfere with the mount on the left side of the amp. Just get regular RCA cables as short as possible because you're only going about 8" with them.


Thanks all! Rax

No Autozone here in Creston. Just O'Reilly's and NAPA and neither of them carry the wire. So I think I found some on ebay, just hope this is the right stuff.

Do I need to get some 8 ga wire for a ground also? The RCA's Walmart does have, tho the shortest length is 6ft.

That is a great deal, I found the 8 AWG and fuse at a local electronics store. I paid 10.00 for the fuse and holder. Ultra is right, my 10 ft of hot and 4 ft of ground were 1.40 per foot. Good luck with your install, I have been listening to the amp in the garage and look forward to hearing on the road.
