hey there,
i have wired in many subs and amps in commodores and usually get the wiring kits from JB HI-FI. they come with everything from RCA leads, Trigger wire for amp, power wire from battery, earth wire, terminals etc and have never had any problems with the wires being too short.

i baught a Cadence Set From JB HiFi... it was a bit moe pricey tho, can't really remember how much, but over $100.. you got a better set of rca leads and the power cable was the same length as a aeropro set, as i have 2 sets. as long as you dont waste the power cables length in the bonnet you will be fine.
so, from the battery run it through the fire wall behind the dash and run it down the drivers side of the car....if you do it this way there is no chance it wont reach.
let me know how you go!

You'll need 6m of power cable, and 5m of RCA lead. Otherwise you will come up short.
