If you’re going to install a three or four amplifier system in your car, then you’re probably pretty serious about your sound. So, when you plan out your system, just make sure that you leave money in your budget for all of the accessories that will help you get the most of the most out of your equipment. These include wires, cables, capacitors, fuses, distribution blocks, and such. Since it can be tricky to keep track of all of the small parts that you might need to complete your install, it might help to buy many of these items together in a kit. The Stinger Total Cap Wiring kit is one such kit. It contains everything that you need to wire a three or four amplifier system (up to 1400 watts).

The Stinger Total Cap Wiring Kit contains an exclusive 1.2 Farad Stinger Cap with four digit blue LED voltmeter, a water resistant four gauge ANL fuse block with bright blue voltmeter, and a four position, water resistant AGU fused distribution block, as well as three 16 foot twisted pair interconnects, a two position capacitor ring terminal in molded translucent case, a capacitor connection block, ground distribution block and two grounding terminals. The kit also contains all of the wire necessary for the install, including 22 feet of 4 gauge translucent blue power wire, 6 feet of 4 gauge translucent ground wire, 12 feet of 8 gauge translucent blue power wire, 12 feet of 8 gauge translucent ground wire, and 6 feet of 12 gauge translucent blue speaker wire, 50 feet of 16 gauge translucent blue speaker wire, and 22 feet of 18 gauge blue remote turn on wire. Additional contents include150 amp ANL fuse, four 60 amp AGU fuses, and miscellaneous ring terminals, fork connectors, and hardware.

Nathan Wincek, director of product development for Stinger asserts that the Total kit approach makes it easier to set up and install your system because all of the parts are purchased at the same time. Nathan also says that this method of buying accessories costs less than buying the parts individually, and takes less time then picking out the individual items.

The answer to your car audio dreams in a single package. (Disclaimer: Some assembly required, batteries not included)
