Re: wanna mod but dont know how

Its not the easiest to do. You have to secure the 2 longer tubes slightly in from the rocker panels, which usually means drilling, then if you don't have a hole to run the wire into the car, you have to drill a hole through the floor, becuz you don't want wires running all over the place under the car. Then the front and rear you mount behind the bumpers. You should probably run the wire for the front one through the engine compartment and through the firewall. And MAYBE drill a hole for the rear one. Make sure you tape or split loom all wires on the outside of the vehicle. Then you hook them up to a switch and make sure they're fused properly. Its not easy, and its hard to say how to do it without seeing the car. If you are a stickler for sound quality, driving around with the underglow system on will interfere with your stereo.

you dont even know what a firewall is. you definitly dont need to be "modding" a car, this is why no one likes ricers.

Re: wanna mod but dont know how

I would leave it to someone with more experience, because even if you drilled holes in the right place, it is dangerous to just run wires through sharp holes.
The insulation will eventually get cut through, and then you could fry your electrical system or even start a fire.
Even worse, you could drill into the gastank or something.
You need more experience that you seem to have.
Not only could you have modifications come loose and be broken, but you could get yourself and the car burned up in a gasoline fire.
