Quick speaker question.

If I cut the speaker wire harness off the back of the bose amp and tone out the wires to find the front tweeters and the front mids and put them in my polk cross over with polk speakers installed up front would that work? So I don't have to run all brand new speaker wire to the front of the car?


Didn't know how to word it to sound right lol sorry.

That should work, be careful how much power you are trying to push through the factory wiring though... You should consider upgrading it.

Also, you should be able to find a wiring diagram so you dont have to tone out all the wires.

You think 100W would be ok through that wire?

You are probably safe with that. Just remember, that is going to heat up the wire, which will increase resistance, which will decrease your power...

The stock wiring is pretty small, I still suggest considering an upgrade. If not now, in the near future.
