I have read all of the threads here about BOSE systems in our CLs, and still have some questions.

1. Can I reuse existing wires from old Bose system?
2. If not, could someone explain how to rewire the car with new audio system.

BTW, my headunit died, that's why all the hooplah.

Planning on using the following:
- Infinity 6 1/2" Component Speakers (6000CS)
- Infinity 6" x 9" Speakers (9603I)
- Panasonic In-Dash CD Player (CQ-C1301U)"

Thanks.

 

i hope youre getting a new amp too to power those speakers. I ran all new wires since i had to anyways to the amp and didnt want/know which stock wires to splice anyways. I ran my rcas under the center console, the rear seat to the trunk, ran the lead, power and ground for the amp under the doorsill, rear seat to the trunk. I mounted my crossovers for the comps in the glove box and just ran wires from there

 

Wow, thats a lot of rewiring.

 

yup, pretty much didnt use any stock wiring at all, so we had to run all new wires. Its not that bad once you rip everything out and have the space to work with

 

hey klept...put that on your diy page!

please, do it for the children!


ed: oh and me too...

 

all you need is the room. I just ran a new 4 gauge power wire, can hardly keep my damn door sill down now!
