Getting ready to do my first car audio install. Here are my items:

1) AXXERA AV614BH Double Din Head unit http://www.crutchfield.com/p_070AV614BH/Axxera-AV614BH.html

(I have the double din bezel and stuff that I got from crutchfield)

2) 2 sets of Polk DB651s speakers Polk Audio db651s 6-1/2" 2-way shallow-mount car speakers at Crutchfield.com

3) Alpine MRV-F300 4 Channel Amp Alpine MRV-F300 4-channel car amplifier — 50 watts RMS x 4 at Crutchfield.com

4) Infinity BassLink sub Infinity BassLink Powered subwoofer: 200 watts and a 10" sub at Crutchfield.com

In preparation I have gathered a Fosgate distribution block 4g to 3 multiple size outputs and all the wire imaginable. I have 4ga 8ga & 12ga. I would like to wire all of my speakers with the 12g.

I planned on using RR'12SiCp's instructions for running the 4g cable to the battery http://www.9thgencivic.com/forum/aud...-si-coupe.html

I kinda need some direction.....after I do this run I have no idea where I should distribute my wires from and to. Do I run my 4g to the distribution block and put it in the passenger panel? Is there room for the MRV in there as well? In my head I would imagine the following happening.

4g to passenger side area above feet. 1 8ga going to the back for the sub, and 1 8ga wire going to the MRV (where is the best place to put the amp?)

Also, what if I decide to add another basslink to my trunk? Will 1 8a be able to supply the power to both? also......the head unit has two channels for the sub. Will I just run two RCA plugs back into the trunk so I can use the other one in the future?

I am so sorry for all of the questions. I am just a little cloudy on how all of this goes down and I want to knock it all out in one day.
