This kit made it very easy to install the radio. The instructions weren't the best but it was pretty self explanitory. Overall good investment

Great!

This is a great amp power kit! I've bought three of them for different cars that I have owned. The cables are excellent quality and easy to route.

Nice install kit!

This is a quality kit with true 8 AWG wire. Has a high strand count and very flexible. The only con i have with the kit is they give you a ring terminal and spade for the ground wire but only a single ring terminal for the power wire but no spade to connect to your amp. I don't understand that but it's not a big deal. I would buy this again.

Great kit for the money

This was the least expensive kit I could find to install my sub. It worked fine and had all the bits and pieces needed. Didn't really want blue wire but I wire-loomed everything anyway so it doesn't show up. Recommended!

Great value..

there was enough wire to run from my battery to the trunk in my 2001 Civic.

Good kit

RCA cables are thin and cheap. Other than that it is a good kit with everything you could need.

It's an amp kit

Has all wires needed to install a smaller amplifier. Power, ground, RCAs, speaker wires, fuse holder, and even has various connectors included
