Help with left door speaker

Had the right one go out on my 06 touring. It's a bose speaker and cannot find one anywhere. Anyone who can help out with where to get one or what the hell it even is will be greatly appreciated. I have pics of the left one:

I found one that was a cadillac actually but i wasnt sure if the harness would work with mine.

Make sure it's really the speaker that's the problem. There's a relay in the bose door amplifier that is notorius for going bad.

I switched the speaker to the other door. Same sound. Plus it definitely sounds blown. But im not an audio expert. All I know if when I push the speaker oone in, it sounds like scratching, which is what you would have with a blown speaker right?

Yeah, swapping's a good test. I'm not aware of a direct replacement, which has to be shallow, 9", and 2 ohm (if you're gonna match the other one). You're probably best off with a WTB in the for sale section to get a working original from a part out. If not, you're stuck adopting some other size speaker to that opening which isn't so easy. Search for numerous examples of doing that.
