ICE Install - Help Needed

[M3E36UK]

First of all... sorry if this question has been asked before.... am new to the BMW world and just brought myself an E36 M3 to play with :-)

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on running the cabling from the head unit back to the boot (trunk for the americans amongst us). Its a standard RHD E36 M3 coupe (not Evo) and I intend to mount 2 amps on the topside of the boot.

As a secondary question: Has anyone tried the Autoleads 6 x 9 converter plate for the read shelf? I want to put a set of Alpine SPR-694A's in the back but was unsure if the rear shelf will impede the speaker movement? Likewise, with the front kick plates. Has anyone fitted Alpine SPR-136A components in the kick-plates and doors. I am a bit worried the speakers will be too deep and catch the kick plate cover?

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

the interior sills of the door is a good way to to run wires. then under the back seat and into the trunk.

El Presidente - Thanks will be a great help. Will post pics when i have finished the install.

Has anyone fitted either of these alpine speakers before I order them?

As for the speakers, the interior sizes are 5.25 up front and 4 in the rear. You chould have plently of room if they are those sizes.
