Default Amp wiring pics

I would like to see some pics of amps that have been custom & neatly wired. Im getting ready to do mine & just dont want it to look like a bunch of wires stuck on it.

first before u even mount the amp hook it up and make sure everything works, start the car make sure there is no wine etc. that way when you mount the amp and cut wires down to length odds are it will work great and there will be no suprises

basically run wire under carpet to where u want it and cut a small slit and run the wire out and hook up to amp

Great looking work. Do you use any type of terminals on the end of your speaker wires going to the amp?
