Alright all, a buddy of mine is putting together a nice audio setup for me and I was wondering if anyone knows a good site where I can pick this stuff up at or if any of you have some good used stuff lying around your not using anymore. Here is the list of things I need, let me know if anyone can help out;
4 gauge power wire: Battery to Trunk
4 gauge ground wire: Battery to Frame & Amp to Frame
4 gauge in-line fuse holder
Distribution of fused distribution block
RCA Cables: Headunit to Trunk
Remote Wire to Turn of Amp From Headunit
30 Amp Relay
Small Fans: For Cooling Hidden Amp
Speaker Wire: Sub to Sub & to Amp
5/8" Screws
Wood Glue
Silicone Caulk
The rest, subs, amp, and mdf board, I'm going to buy locally but I figured I could save some money if I buy the rest of this stuff over the net. And please don't ask me to explain what i need any of this for because to tell you the truth I'm not quite sure. I know NOTHING about car audio. I asked my buddy to make me a system and he gave me a list of things to buy. So I'm asking you guys for your help. Thanks in advance.

what about the fans. and wouldn't the wiring kits be cheap. Or isnt there cheap brands in the audio world? All this stuff is foreign to me...sorry for all the questions.

your a savior jamcllw, thanks a ton. I'm almost positive we decided on one amp but I don't know why he would put the distribution block on the list then...I will give him a call and see what he says.

I bought fans for my amp, at a local, computer servicing place. There were only like 15 bucks each..
