Conduit. I run mine under also. You ever seen the wires under your truck? Whats the difference? Power wire has a thicker jacket anyway by far.

I ended up running mine down the front quarter panel.....though to the fron door hinge....I then cut a whole in the jacket the hoses the wire that goes from the truck into the drivers side door and ran it though there into the cab of the vehicle. Worked great and wasn't too difficult. I need to take the hole up with some electrical tape and I will be set.

Finally coming together.....I got wire, connectors, and Battery Terminals coming from Knu today for the Big 3. I need to go get a new battery with top posts in the next few days. I have a List of things to go get from Lowes/WalMart/AutoZone to get this install underway.

My setup is as Follows...
HU: Alpine CDA-9815 (oldie but goodie)(damn V-drive internal amp....got to run new power wire)
Comps : PG RSD 6.5's (in deadened front doors)(crossovers in the doors)
Rear speakers: Stock
Sub: Arc Audio Arc 12D2 (1.25 cubes sealed with some polyfil)
Amp: Autotek MM100.4 (100x2 to the comps 300x1 to the Sub)

I think that covers everything.....this is an extremely cheap setup that should sound nice.
