    I used 17 feet of power wire from battery to the amp rack on the inside rear of the t-top storage. Took every inch of it. I used about a foot of ground from the amp to the ground point on the truck release. I guess the major factor is how far from the battery you are, my spot couldn't be much further.

      keep the ground cable to 10"'s or less, it's just better that way.

          I didn't measure, but I used just as much 4awg as I needed to wire it from the battery to the rear hatch. and about 15" or so of ground wire. Keep the ground wire as short as possible.
