Highly doubt your gonna need a compacitor for that set up... In my VL Calais i was running: *Kenwood full color deck *Boss 2000w 4 channel amp *Kenwood 7x10" 5way 500w speakers in shelf *4" Kenwood 2way speakers in dash *12" Kenwood Dual Voice coil 1500w sub All running of a 600cca battery.. Used to pump music in my car for hours and drive away! In my Senator *6" splits in the doors *6" splits in the shelf *Tweeters in the shelf *Fusion 4channel amp *JBL crossovers *2 10" US Audio subs All running off a 600cca with no problems! All your gonna need is to run a 2 guage power cable from the battery to the boot (dont forget the fuse ofcourse and mount it as close to the battery as possible)... remote wire from the head deck to the amp in the boot, rca cables from the back of the head deck to the boot (down the opposite side of the car to the power & remote cable)... sand back a good solid earth in the boot of your car then run the speaker wires from your speakers to your amp and your all set up... just make sure you purchase or have a decent cca battery Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

-2 channel amp for the splits -dont bother with capacitor, they are a waste of money except in the 'big' SPL cars -sound deadening

splits should come with a crossover, you only need 2 channels for that look around on forums for second hand gear, car audio australia/mobile electronics australia would be my first port of call
