Article: The firewall is the metal frame separating the engine compartment from the rest of the car. Even though it looks enclosed, it will have an opening for you to use when wiring the subwoofers. This opening is tiny, so it can be hard to see. Shine a light down from above the engine bay to try and spot the opening. Many cars have an opening near the glovebox on the passenger side. You can also get into the car and look for the opening there. If you don't see an opening, you may be able to make a hole with a sharp knife or drill fitted with a steel bit. Be careful to avoid cutting any wires. The power cable is often the longest wire in a wire kit and is colored red, but make sure to check the labeling. Lower the wire down into the engine compartment and through the firewall hole until it emerges inside your car. Then, go inside your car to pull it all the way to the subwoofers. Route it along one side so it won't be exposed and at risk of damage. Leave the wire unconnected for now. Routing the wire through the firewall hole can be a little tricky. To make this easier, straighten out a hanger, then curl one end into a hook. Use the hook to guide the wire. Most cars have a little bit of extra space along the sides for wire storage. Expose these channels by lifting up the carpeting or trim panels. The trim panels are often held in place by plastic pins. Use a flathead screwdriver to pry the pins off. Note where each panel belongs before removal so you have no trouble reinstalling them later. Use something sharp, such as lineman's pliers, that can sever the wire in one stroke. Measure out from the end of the wire in the engine compartment. Cut through it and set this section aside to reuse later. The in-line fuse you will use to power the subwoofer should be no more than 6in (15cm) from the battery. Cut the wire so that it extends from the battery to where you plan on placing the fuse. Position wire strippers on the end of the long power cable in the engine compartment. Squeeze the blade down until it breaks through the insulation but not the wire underneath it. Then, pull the cut casing off to expose the wire. Wire strippers are the best tool to use if you want to remove the insulation without risking the underlying wires. You can also use something like a sharp knife, but be very careful with it. To crimp the wire, hold it in the jaws of a wire crimping tool and squeeze it. The crimping tool combines the wires strands into a single, neat ball that fits into one of the openings on the fuse. Open a terminal by using an Allen key on the hole above it. Turn the key counterclockwise to open the terminal, then insert the power wire and close the terminal again. The power wire should be secure in the fuse. If it feels easy to move, tighten the terminal with the Allen key a little more. Be careful not to overtighten it. Pick up the cut length of wire you set aside earlier. Measure about 12in (1.3cm) from the end, strip off the insulation, and then use the crimping tool on it. Plug the crimped end into the open part of the fuse, using an Allen key to open and close it as needed. This wire will be opposite from the rest of the power wire so you can attach it to the battery. Position the fuse in a safe spot where it won't be jostled around while you're driving. Try anchoring it to the car frame with a screw or cable tie. Strip 12in (1.3cm) off the free end of the shorter length of power wire. Then, push the exposed end through the opening on the ring terminal. The opposite end of the terminal is a metal ring that fits over the positive terminal on your car's battery. Secure it in place by putting the positive battery cable and nut back in place. The ring needs to fit on the positive terminal, which is usually labeled and is recognizable by the red cable connected to it. You can put the battery terminal nut back when you're done.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Find an opening in the firewall to feed the power wire through. Run the power cable from the battery to the subwoofer. Cut about 6in (15cm) off the front end of the power wire. Strip 12in (1.3cm) of insulation from the remaining wire. Crimp the exposed wire and plug it into the in-line fuse. Connect the cut length of wire to the fuse after crimping it. Hook the power cord to the positive battery terminal with a ring terminal.
Article: The guidelines vary depending on service type and quality, but are fairly simple once you get used to them. Overall, not much is expected of travelers. A service gratuity is usually included on your bill in a restaurant, but if not, tip 10% to 15% of your bill. Note that tipping is not customary in pubs. At a hotel, give 1 to 2 pounds per bag for porters and per night for housekeepers. You can offer up to 5 pounds at a five-star hotel. Tip your cab driver 10% or less. You should also tip a guide or personal driver up to 10 percent at the end of a day. The appropriate tip amount varies based on service. No tip is required at restaurants, but locals usually leave up to 10% in coins. You do not need to tip at a bar. Tip 1 euro per bag at a hotel and 1 to 2 euros per night for the housekeeper. Tip the concierge 10 to 15 euros for each restaurant reservation made, and pay half on arrival and half at departure. Guides receive tips between 25 and 50 euros, but private airport transfers should receive 10 to 20 euros. Tipping is fairly straightforward in Germany. Add a 10% to 15% tip when paying your bill at a restaurant or bar. Give the porter at a hotel 3 euros per bag. The housekeeper gets 5 euros per night, and the concierge should get 20 euros if helpful service was provided. You only need to worry about tipping servers at restaurants and hotel staff. Offer a 10% tip in a restaurant, but do not exceed that amount. Porters get 5 euros per bag and housekeepers get 1 to 2 euros per night. Vary your tip based on the service provided, and always pay in cash rather than credit card. For good service at a restaurant, tip 7% to 13%. Skip the tip for bad service. Concierges should receive a 5 to 10 euro tip for special favors. Cleaning staff at a hotel should get 5 euros a day, and bellboys should get 1 euro per bag. Tip a tour guide 30 to 40 euros per person per day. When tipping a taxi driver, simply round up the fare.

Article: Choose an area with good lighting. Cover your work surface with newspaper or a cheap, plastic, tablecloth. If you will be working with spray paint, it would be best if you work in a well-ventilated area; outside would be best. If there are any places on your plastic you do not wish to paint, cover them in painter's tape. Spray paint works especially well for plastic, but you can use acrylic or enamel/model paint as well. It would be even better if the paint is meant for plastic. Check the label, and look for words such as: "Plastic" or "Multi-Surface." At this point, your project is complete and ready to use. If you'd like to add some details or a top coat, read on to the next part. If you applied masking tape earlier, you should remove it now. Peel it away carefully so that you don't accidentally chip the paint.

Set up your workspace. Choose a paint that is suitable for plastic. Let the paint to dry completely after your final coat.
