the main reason why people hate caps as far as getting rid of dimming is the common misconseption that caps are made for that reason and also the misconseption the amps draw power from the + side of the terminal, these are both not true, electrons flow from - to + not + to -, thats why upgrading you...

upgrading the grounding system helps a little too, you will also notice your car gets a little more pep, i used 4awg power wire i had laying arround at the shop, worked great and the caps are keeping the spikes at bay

no where the factory tweeters go, if you shape the metal like a horseshoe, if you have it facing up my tweeter is bolted at the bottom of the horseshoe facing up so its inside the "U". after that you bend the top to form something like an ohmega symbol and you just use the existing 3.5in screw hole ...

what i did with my tweeters is i got some backstrapping and formed it into a ohmega shape and bolted the tweeter into the bottom since it has a screw hole on the underside.

was it the black or silver ones, the black ones are actually the power accustic FUBAR's, they are DVC subs and only sound good with a power accustic amp (or the grey insignia amp which is also a PA piece)

its a ground issue with the relay, what your getting is something like a ground loop. either the relay is sharing a ground with the radio, or the amp or radio have a bad ground connection, remember electrons flow from - to + not + to -
