    I want to change the RCA cables inside my car that goes from the radio to the amplifier that lays in my trunk. I have a Honda Accord which measures about 189.4 inches, which is 15 feet. Should i buy an RCA cable that is 16 feet or will i be playing it to tight? Should i just go with a 20 feet RCA cable or will the 16 feet be fine?

    Thank you.

    Its a honda acccord, , it will be long enough!!!!!!!

    It aint no darned land yaught with 243' of space to run a cable/

    if you want, get the 20 footer, just will allow ou more room to mount the amp. if you do get a 20 footer, make sue to not tie up t he excess cable near the power wires, or, if you like engine niose, wrap the rca aroung the power wire, that oughta git er dun!!!LOL!!!
