What is the easiest way to run some wires from the passenger area to the trunk on a spyder?

Wiring a sub or something, Tmann?  The best and most discrete way is to go under the carpet near the door sills.  Then when you reach the rear seats, the wires should fit under there unless it's too thick of a gauge.  It might stick out a little if it's too thick.  To get to under the carpet, just remove the door sills.  There should be only a couple of screws or tabs holding it in place.

Well, that's not quite the question, I'm talking about running the wires from the back seat to the trunk.  I couldn't find an easy way to get past the hole where the top goes into.  Should I go under the car?

The Backseat to the trunk?  I know on the 2g's when you remove the rear seat and rear backrest(they're two eperate peices), there'll be the leather bag(or boot) that the top folds down in to.  There's plenty of empty space back there and it just goes to the trunk.  Maybe that can help?!?  I guess the 3g's are different...but i dunno.  But don't put any wires outside the car, that's kinda dangerous.  I'd say just remove the back seats and you might get to where you want.  Unless mitsu welded a plate to seperate the trunk on 3g's, i *think* this might work....What exactly are you planning on doing, if you don't mind me asking?

Subs and amps... ;) I removed the rear seat pad thing, and I couldn't see any easy way to get to the trunk from there. I'll snap some pics, perhaps that may help. Thank you anyways, I appreciate the effort.

Cancel, I just had to open the trunk and move the carpet, duh me. LOL Bonus, Mitsu also incoporated a firewall "conduit" so techies like me can run some high guage power wire from the battery to the amp with ease. :D
