First off power caps are useless in big car audio, but small is fine. Now the way to hook it up is the power wire coming from the front of your car goes to the + side of the cap then another wire will go on the + side of the cap and go to the amp. The ground of the cap can go striaght to the car by way of self tap screw.

How do you wire sub-woofers and amplifiers into a 2001 Grand Am?

I recently installed a pair of 12" Infinity subwoofers in my 2000 Gramd AM. I ran the power wire from the battery on the driver's side of the car to the amp. I ran the audio wires and the antenna wireon the passenger side of the car. You should put the wires on opposite sides of the car, to reduce static that can be caused from the electromagnetic field produced by the large amount of power running through the power wire. Hook up the audio wires, antenna wire, and power wire to the amp. Then all you have to do is connect your amp to your subs. GrandAMMAn
