Sorry, no pictures but a funny story nonetheless.

A good buddy of mine owns a car stereo shop and i was hanging out with him one day when a customer pulls in and says his 'system' keeps shutting down. They open up the hood to check the power wire lead to the amp and see a piece of 12 gauge speaker wire jammed between the + battery post and the main battery cable. They then trace this speaker wire where it was run along the gap between the hood and fender, through the door jam, between the headliner and trim, and finally to some swapmeet special "Hi-Power" amp that was attempting to run 2 15's in parallel. Everytime he would open and close the door the wire would get crushed and either blow a fuse on the amp or pull the wire off the battery. haha
