Grounding Amps In A Zx3 - MAlby7 - 06-03-2004

I have two amps in my hatch. Where is the best place to ground them? Does anyone have any pictures showing it?

Theres a good spot closer to the bumper, inside the ZX3 trunk. I'll see if I can dig the pics of mine.

Yes there is a sopt at the rear bumper, but your tailights are also grounded to that point. You may experince ur tailights dimming in and out . Another good grounding point is the rear seat belt. All you have to do is unscrew the the torx screw holding the seatbelt bracket and grind a little paint off the bracket and your set.

you should be able to ground your amp to any steel portion of the body.

I used my seatbelt mounting post bolt... just fold the bottom of the back seats forward. pull one of the bolts. i believe its a t40 or t45 torx and you should be fine.

I found an open area under my tail lights to use for my grounding spot. I just sanded off the paint a little, put a bolt through it, and I dont have any problems with my tail lights dimming when the bass is playing.

Whoops, i forgot to mention. sand alittle of the paint off.... i like using the seatbelt boat just because it seems to fit a 4ga lug perfectly.
