Can anybody confirm what is the shortest lenght of power cable i can use in a mk1 octavia.I've got a 4.5mtr lenght of o gauge but unsure if this is too short?
And is o gauge easy to fit?

I thought I might struggle with 5 metres of 0 gauge and so used a 6 metre length but i've got loads spare, you'll definately do it with 5 and I would have thought you'd get away with 4.5 though kind of depends where your fuse block in the boot is going to be?
Close to the seats ok, but close to the lights then no.
