I was going to get a 1.0 Lightning Audio Farad cap soon because my lights dim real bad when my bass hits and i def. dont want to destroy my alternator..anyway toe point of this topic is..has anyone got one..any ideas? i was going to deal with crutchfield.com because their customer service i think is the best.

how hard is to hook one of these things up? And do i need to get a new alternator if i get a cap..i was under the impression you did after reading another thread in here somewhere

(if this has been topic'ed before my bad, i searched but got no result)

It has been proven many times that caps are a band aid fix and places extra stress on your electrical system. 90percent of people who have dimming headlights etc is due to grounding problems.

Upgrade your grounds and you would not have any problems. The factory grounding of the celica is especially pathetic in the engine bay.
