The amp kit. Connectors, ground wire, power wire, remote turn-on wire, conduit, and blue RCA cables. The king of that mountain is my shitty wire crimping tool.

The subwoofer and it's new home, a carpeted box.

I crimped some ends onto the speaker wire and connected them.

Then I fed the other ends into the speaker box.

Here is the amp in it's corruptable, mortal state.

This was a preview of what it would all look like eventually. The big honker on the red power line is a fuse.

I removed the negative terminal of my battery to open the circuit, so that I could attach the amp's power line to the positive terminal without fear of shocking myself. I put a rag under the terminal so it wouldn't be tempted to reconnect.

Here's the power terminal being connected to the battery.

This hole exists in the firewall above the clutch pedal. I removed the rubber gromit that fills the hole and cut a slice in it to allow for the power cable to come through.

Here's a wider shot of the hole.

If I did this project again, I would have fed the wire through the hole before connecting it to the battery. It's much easier to fish a wire out of the engine compartment from above, then from the behind the pedals through a tiny hole. It took 15 minutes and a coat hanger to finally pull it through.

Here's a shot from above. I was making sure the wire was near the hole before returning to the footwell to dig around for it with the coat hanger...

Here's when I finally snagged it and pulled it through.
