Now there is a thread for those things that you thought were too silly to ask.
Not hat there is such a thing on this forum.
Ill' kick it off as I'm mounting a 3 gauge pod to the dash about mid way
it will be velcroed to a dash mat[yet to arrive].
My question is other than figure 8 twin can you get say 6 wires that are joined but flat
ribbon style?? That way it will lay flat under the dash mat
You can get this stuff. http://www.jaycar.com.au/Wire,-Cable...Cable/p/WB1622 Depends what current you want to carry.Quote:

There's a quick example using my google expert powers. You'd have to find something in the ampage rating you're after. Lots of those old computer towers laying around have ribbon cords in them, but usually in short lengths.
It good to have a silly question thread, I may be asking a few of those. Asking a silly question saves making a silly mistake.
I've got some flat cat5 around you can have. Would carry small current fine
Yes you can, it's called ribbon cable. Probably no good for a vehicle situation though as the strands are thick and will break with vibration.
WoW great response thanks its only to power 3 gauges
thinking they wouldnt need huge cable to power them
might have to tape some fig8 side by side
That's what I would do John, Cat5 is probably okay for use but definitely do not use telephone cable. I know you are not the type of person who wants to have to do a job over and over.
correct first time the right way hopefully thanks again Winnie,
Telephone wire wont cut it I'd see what they have at the airport
but all my mates have taken the big handshake gggrrrrrr
Why don't chickens have lips?
Not too silly hope you find an aswer
