umm....i take it you're running RCA cables?

I ran mine down the passenger side...pretty easy.

Feed it down the back of the console, hide it under the carpet, and pull up the plastic kick panels under the doors to reveal the plastic white wire pipe/guide things or whatever they're called. I found my RCA's too fat to fit in there, so i just ran beside it.

Once u get to the back of the car, pull out the seat cushions. You can do this by pulling two plastic clips located just above the carpet and where it joins the seat. You can't miss it. Pul them out at the same time, and the cushion will slide out forward and upward easily.

From here on, you can shove the cables thru the corners on each side. It will be fiddly, but doesn't tke too long.

yerr once the back seats off its not too hard. I went up the left hand side.

I just ran my speakers cables and RCAs yesterday. I removed the whole back seat though. Very easy to do and made getting all the cables into the boot a heck of a lot easier.
EEK what size RCAs are you using!!!! I fitted 2 pairs of speaker and RCA cables inside that plastic thing with plenty of room! I thought you had the same as me? Stinger 'Hyper' I think mine are.
Will post some pics in my wiring help thread later.

Next weekend is the power cable! Means I gotta pull the lefthand side apart now :confused: Should be quuicker though as I know what im doing now.
Left the speaker cables rolled up under the carpet in the front! Could be stuffed trying to figure out how to get it into the doors. Will do that when I get the splits save pulling the doors apart twice.

Cheers

yeah look up colgate's thread on wiring...i hated wiring the doors

as for RCA's yeah, mine were STinger Hyper ones...but I got the 4ch one. As in they can't be seperated from each other....4 plugs come together into 2, then come together into 1 fat cable...ok, i have to admit i was a bit lazy lol

here, have some pics..i like pics...everybody likes pics :D

i done some cabling on friday ... ran 0 guage power cable down the drivers and 3 sets of rca's down the passengers side ... but i seem to be having a few probs getting the speaker wire through the doors ... but will attemp that again tomorrow night

think i made a taboo though and ran the amp power up wire with the rca's ... my bad but i'll see how that goes

uhohh!!1 see how it goes...if u don't get noise then its ok..but better safe than sorry, i'd re-route them right now, instead of doing it all the having to rip the interior apart when you're finished.

goodluck dude...door speaker wires arne't easy, esp in ur case :bowrofl:
