Where can i earth my amp in the boot? have tried all of the parcel shelf bolts (in between the plastic and the metal) and one of them worked for a bit but not anymore, anyone got any ideas where i can use? lol :p

theres one beside the bracket for the rear seatbelts. scrap away some of the paint to reveal bare metal and use a nut and bolt to secure a ring connector.

I used the centre mount for the rear bumper.... get 40Grit Alu Oxide paper on the paint around it...put the amp wire to that, cover it with the black plastic bit!

Done, and damn sexy too :D

when i bought my car it had an amp hooked up to where the rear seat on the drivers side bolts to the side of the car. its nice to put it there as it keeps it out the way aswell

For my Sei I used the middle bumper mount bolt, just above the middle of the waste air ducting.

Seems to be a pretty solid earth, although I've not run a current through it for any length of time - just wired my amp up to make sure that the cabling I laid at the weekend is sound.
