Talking Where can I buy install accessories?

Can someone tell me a place on the web to buy install accessories in one place (ie. distribution block, 4 awg kits, rca cables, LOCs, etc.?)

I can buy them through Ebay but through like 4 different vendors and would like to buy them for a good price without paying all the markup?

Can someone recommend a good online store (or even a retail store)?

Thanks
DC

which brings me to my wquestion. Has anyone any solid experience they can share? I know that wires can make a difference. I am still very confused as to why the power to my amplifier needs to be thicker than the wire that feeds my house (enough to run an arc welder and a home stereo- that rocks) but I digress.

They have a 4 awg install kit for $36 and interconnects for $17 all from Phoenix Gold.

Everything seems to be a good price but what do the audio gurus say about specific brands of wires. I'd like to save some cash of course.

Thanks

personally i wouldn't worry about getting the power wire from there. if you need 4 guage, just go to walmart, there really isn't a difference in the cables. they all work the same and assuming you install it all correctly it distributes the same amount of power. As for the RCA's $17 isn't a bad price at all, and if you are looking to spend money on one thing over the other i would definately suggest spending it on the RCA's over the power cable.

Ya deffinately spend your money on the RCA's they will make or break your system - noise rejection and sound quality. If you are running anything over 500 watts or so, go with 4 guage power wire, its not that much more money, but it could save your butt. I got all my wire off Ebay - all Stinger and basically less than half price vs. the store.

Do a search for it, but it is a box below your air filter that pretty much slows down the intake air and makes it quiet. Removing it, makes your ride soundl like you have a CAI. It sounds sweet and you can add the better K&N air filter.
