He's replacing them with the Kappa's

Ok. I have plenty of zip ties and misc screws. I'll see if I can grab some extra 8awg.

Ok, the install is done, but I'm not too sure about wiring the high level inputs. Does the ground wire need to be terminated? It works without it.

Your correct John, you don't use the ground wire in that harness.

I have an aftermarket head unit, and have always run RCA's so I've never wired high level inputs before. Regardless, it works and he's happy I think.

You'll have to ask him. I will say he seemed to like my 6 speaker 3000D set up. I'm sure he will follow up. Nice guy.
