Question Replace Front Speaker Wires

On my gosh~!
After reading very helpful tips from this forum I finally
decide to replace my speaker wires. (I got 4x90W RMS for my component speakers)
Back doors were ok but front doors are so so hard...
Anyone knows device can help run wire through rubber boot on front doors?

just pop the ends out of the holes. that makes it easy to manipulate the boot, the wire loom in it and the new speaker wire. you'll find that it's much easier when you can straighten out the boot to eliminate the right angles. it's easy to pop them back in if you just work one section at a time.

I found it very difficult and ended up just poking two holes in each boot. The rubber gripped around the wire for a good seal, but I put urathane adhesive on it just to be safe. Not the cleanest... but it's very difficult to work in the hinge area because your hands barely fit in there.

Its a bar that limits the door from being opened to far. If you open the door and look between the hinges you will see a bar. There is only one.

A wire hanger and liquid soap will do the trick - you'd be AMAZED how easy the soap makes it. Pull the wire hanger through the boot, tape your wire to it, apply a little soap, and pull - VIOLA!
