Question 99' TL w/NAV + BOSE help

I have one rear speaker that is not speaking. Both fronts work and the sub works. Car has the old talking NAV system and she still talks fine. I never get in the back so I didnt notice untill I was fooling with the fader and ballance controlls.
If someone could tell me were the rear door speakers are fed from and what I could do to test before ripping the rear door pannel apart? I am sure the feed wire is run through the rubber flex tube to the chassis but from there??? Under front door sill? Under carpet along center console? Is there a detailed wireing diagram available anywhere?

BTW eveything is factory-stock-unmodified

Thanks in adavance...

If you have any special knowledge on this subject please send to driscoll2@comcast.net

Honestly it will be easier to just take teh door panel off and test the wire there. That is the best location. (that and it only takes 30 sec to pull the door panel off)

Door panel

Is the panel removal a hard job or an easy driveway job? I dont want to screw up my leather!

""" OR """ Should I consider having better speakers installed proffesionaly and let them worry about the door panels?

If so, what kind would be suggested? Whatever is on-sale at Best-Buy or some high-end brand?

Are the ones in the door coaxial, triaxil, component or just plain-old full-range speakers?


B.T.W. I get better info from this web-site than from any other place!

Thanks to all and keep up the good work!

Its a VERY easy driveway job (that once done once) is a less than a min job. There is 1 screw behind the chrome door handle, slide the plastic trim forward and unclip, and (if my memory is correct) 1 under teh handle you use to pull it shut. then just start pulling from the bottom and pop the clips and lift up. Once loose unclip the wire harness and its off.

Thanks! If the weather is not too bad, I'll giv it a try tomorrow. Hopefully the connector has vibrated loose from the speaker or something easy like that....
