Christ, this is what you get with Adam wiring 
Aside, why are you running direct wire to the head unit? The stock wiring is plenty enough. A head unit pulls nowhere near the amount of energy a simple amp can produce. Simply, a head unit can only achieve at most 20-25RMS per its 4 channels. 100watts RMS is not a problem, (assuming we are talking constant). Second, go to a 25 or 30amp fuse if you somehow find in your own logic that a head unit is an actual amp. Grounding a 10 gauge will pop a 25 or 30 amp fuse so you wont have any problems with it. Hell I had a Avic Z2 based out of the stock wiring, and saw no draws/power cuts or pulls. If I remember you bought the alpine unit thats in there, which is probably pulled 18-23rms per channel, and would have absolutely no problem with stock wiring.
