I have a few wiring related questions:
1. Is it OK to use speaker wire designated as 'in-wall' wire for car
audio use?
I was thinking of wiring my car with the following wi

It will work. It does have an extra layer of protection against abrasion.
It even has all the funny advertising. Its got to be good with all that
detail.
The only problem I have with it, is its more than what I would pay, and
its NOT tinned.
2. Is it safe to tap off my car's yellow constant 12V wire that's on a
harness behind the dash in order to power a head unit, EQ and a relay?
This wire is factory fused at 15 amps, according to the manual.
Sounds safe to me. Don't take off any manufacturers fuse, and
all wiring must be able to handle fuse currents, in this case 15 amps.
