Default Does anyone with aftermarket audio have wire length measurements?

Hi everybody,

After TONS of searching, I can't seem to find anyone who has posted wire lengths for an aftermarket stereo install. I'm gearing up to put in new components and a sub, and of course I need to run some new wires, but I was hoping not to have to take everything apart twice (once to measure, then a second time after I order all the wire I need).

If I can't find the lengths, I'll definitely post 'em after the install though.

Mainly, I want to know how long of a wire it takes to go from the battery to the trunk. Anyone who installed their own sub might have this...please?

Also, if anyone has em:

- Wire length from trunk to front component speakers?
- Wire length from glove box to trunk, down the center?

Much, much appreciated yall, and if nobody has these measurements handy, I'll just post 'em after my install.

btw, whats the best route would u guys say for routing the wires? running under the middle close to the transmission tunnel seems to be the most work? is running down the 2 door sides be easier? one side for power and one side for signal?

I ran down the door sides, plenty of room in the channels under the carpet, just make sure you are clear wherever a screw goes
