Bose Amp Wire Harness?

My Bose amp in the trunk is fried. I need to replace it and already have a amp. What type of harness do I need for this thing?

you have to probably take out the front door speaker amps the same time but I could be wrong. the rear amp only powers the rear two speakers.

See after all my research I came to this conclusion (I know people had problems with their mini amps relays)...

The HU sends the signal to the rear amp then relays it to the front speakers. If my rear amp is fried there would be no signal going to the front. None of my speakers work. The odds of both my mini amps and the main one crapping out at the same time is highly unlikely. That is why I think my main amp is junked.

I have a relacement amp but the bose amp uses those weird harness connectors. I didn't know if there was something aftermarket (harness) that would attach to the existing harness to use a regular amp.

Who knows, any suggestions would be helpful.
