HHR Ed Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Ground them to the chassis. But I wouldnt wire them to the remote wire unless you use a relay. Give em their own dedicated switch.

HHR Ed Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 u mean give them their own fuse? bc i just have my remot wired into one of my fuses in my fuse block I would take that remote out of the fuse box too. What fuse is it? You should give any accessories that you add on, its own dedicated fuse and switch. The amps can just be wired to the head unit's remote wire. If you have a factory head unit. Run your own power wire from the battery of master power through a switch.

Then just ground to the metal of the car. You may not have had any problems, but its not the best thing to do, especially if you plan on adding amps. And sometimes you can have turn on pop if the amps are turned on/off with ignition or something.
