CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION
Choose a location that doesn’t prevent you from loading or unloading cargo, interfere with fold-down seats, or keep
you from being able to open or close the
trunk lid, or interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
Basspro 8 WIRING
You’ll make all signal and connections, and adjust all settings at the panel on the back of the Basspro 8.
The package includes a wiring harness that features all necessary wires for power, ground, and signal, and plugs into
the “INPUT” connector on the back panel of
the Basspro 8. It also includes a pair of RCA adapters for use with speaker-level inputs.
FOR POWER
Connect the end of the red 16-gauge power wire to your vehicle’s + (positive) battery terminal. Note: If an extension
cable is necessary because of your mounting location, we recommend that you connect the extension to the power
wire using solder. You must also install a fuse holder with a 10A fuse in-line and within 18″ of the battery.
FOR GROUND
Connect the 16-gauge black ground wire to a solid, metal point on the vehicle’s chassis using a ring terminal. Use
sandpaper to clear the paint from the metal surface at the chassis location. Use a star-type lock washer to secure the
wire.
