About the lisence plate rattling........ I just put a piece of cardboard behind it and screwed it on top of it and it did the job. I'm running 2 rockford fosgate punch z 10's. When I really crank up the system with a bass heavy song, it does rattle a bit, but not nearly as bad when it was without the cardbord.

QUOTE (SaintMichaelCelica @ Jan 23 2003, 05:20 AM) the same thing happened to me, check your inline fuse under your hood, you may need to get a better wattage one, i was blowing 40watt ones all the time, then i moved to a 60 and it hasnt gone since. lmfao, i have 2 Rockford He2 12s and a 1000 watt rockford Punch Amp..and some asshole...put a 30 amp in my 4gauge wire that went to the amp..what a dumbass...i put a 60 in and haven't had a problem since..**** hits hard as hell and whoever said linkin park sucks...shut up, go listen to mariah carey..

Thats great except for one thing, the 30amp fuse is meant for protection, unless u wanna a nice fire from your battery to ur location of ur amp, i suggest swapping out that 60amp for something more towards the specs. I believe if u goto streetwires.com they will have a chart telling u what wire guage/and fuse to use in certain applications i.e;

20foot 4guage with 300watts of power will need xxx fuse...

u get the picture... becareful with that 60 tho im serious, i worked for a car audio place in ny for a couple of years and we had dozens of people come in cuz there power wire fried there interior etc...

I've seen the same thing. Usually people put too big of a fuse or no fuse at all.

But 20 feet of 4ga can eaisly handle 600watts rms. And for an amp to produce 600 watts of power it needs 96 amps of current. If his 60 amp fuse isn't blowing he has nothing to worry about.
