A couple of my stock Bose amps have started to go the way of a screeching popping death, so I've decided to take on a technology refresh and update both the headunit, and speakers in one fell swoop.
I've done headunit swaps on other cars, and also upgraded speakers, but none of those cars had such fussy amplified setups as the NSX - they were always just unplug old, plug in new, maybe add an amp, done.
My question is specifically around the wiring for door speakers. Since the Bose door units are amplified I'm assuming the wiring running to them is signal level not speaker.
So... are people re-using any of the stock Bose wiring in the doors when they replace the units with aftermarket speakers? Or is it basically required to run new speaker wire into the doors? Is there any plug/play kit to accomplish re-using the stock wiring harness with an aftermarket headunit and speakers (not at the headunit end, at the speaker end of the harness)
I've searched for a DIY guide or thread showing what people have done specifically for wiring aftermarket component speakers in the door position but I"ve come up empty after reading everything in this forum.
