I wanted to see what some of you did to run new speaker wire to aftermarket component speakers in the doors. I've looked at the conduit running from the chassis to the door and it looks like it would be difficult to run new speaker wire through it. I had an old Mazda that had an actual male/female plug right at the interface making it impossible to run new speaker wires to the door speakers. I ended having to drill holes and that was a disaster (drill bit + wire bundles= big mess).

Has anyone tried fishing speaker wire through those rubber conduits, or some other way? I would like to avoid using the factory speaker wire if possible. But if I did, do you tap into them at the Bose amp in the trunk?

 

I did it and so was 4PumpedCL. I think Langae did it also. The first time is a mess but the other side is much easier. For the driver side, I removed the door but I learned and fished the oiled zinc wire through the conduit to pull the speaker wire.
Yes, you can tap to the stock speaker wires at the Bloze amp.
