Whats the best way to do this, where can I run the + wire through the bulkhead and get access from interior?

Better to run the RCA's down their own side?

Best place to earth the amp?

You can follow the wireing loom trough the fusebox to get the + into the car, then just run it down the side of your car under the trims.

Yes, usualy better as less interfierance, however my + and RCA's are running alongside each other and no probs.

look begind the facia in the boot, there are a few bolts going into the bulkhead, sand the paint off one to get a clean contact and stick it there

Tis all fairly easy TBH.

My amps are earthed where the seat belt bolts into the chassis.

RCA's come straight down the middle and power down the passenger side. Got 0ga coming through the bulkhead behind the glovebox, isn't too bad a job TBH.
