help!!

Can someone please tell me how i take the wires for my sub and amp,through the back seats to the boot of the car. I have got as far as the back seat by putting the wires along the door seals but cant get past the back seats into the boot.

Just pull off the bottom of the seat and push wires under the upright.

Place all slack under the seated section and push back into place.

What car is it?

R reg BMW318i

Exact model would help as someone will probably know. If it's an E39 5 series for example there is probably a route where the CD changer normally goes on the LH side of the boot.

If there's no existing route you'll probably need a cone cutter, a grommet and some tape/rods to fish the cables through. That's assuming there isn't a pre-existing blanked off hole.

Right, remove the upright portion of the seat too.

The bottom one just pulls off, the upright will be bolted.

Put cables in place and replace seating as I mentioned before.

You usually pull out the corner of the back seat, the bolster, it pulls up and out from teh bottom.

You then have a rubber gromet going into the boot.
Push teh wires through and they will be behind the boot trim panel.
