Does anyone know where I can get RCA cables long enough to hook up from my monitors to my in dash. I went to Best Buy but the longest they had was 3 ft. I need more like 8 ft. HELP!

They should have longer. I don't know why they would not. Most local shops carry up to 20ft.

Ya I asked the guy if they had any more but he said no. I prolly have to go to a car audio place and see if they'll sell me one. You think radio shack might have em??

I get all my quality cables,adapters, etc from "monoprice.com".
They have RCA cables from 6" to 25'+
They have very low prices and various shipping options including 1st class mail with very fast shipping.

Cables are dirt cheap but are very high quality.

If nothing else, Best Buy should have couplers to link two cables together. They run about $5 each iirc

What do you mean by wrong ones? :iono:
Too short? Wrong ends?

I have used monoprice in the past and was happy with them, though I did not get
video cables.

Well, we said monoprice but I guess you were stubborn:p

I never buy anything at that shithole known as "best" buy.
