Re: Octavia Power Lead.....

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.
