AI James Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 What he means is you're going to run the wires through that flexible rubber boot. That's where all of the wires go through to the door itself. Just curious though, why do you need to run wires through there anyway? I'm sure the stock speaker wires are already through that, and all your tweeters are in the door panel that I see. Funny, just today I was helping my cousin run his tweeters to his a-pillars. The crossover was in the door panel so naturally we had to run the new wires through the rubber boot. When you're doing it, a really flexible coat hanger wire or a fairly stiff ziptie, and some electrical tape are your friend to fish the wires through. When you get to that step you'll see what I mean. pretty much exactly what i told him but i guess it was confusing. that bolt i spoke of on top dont mess with it, as its a ground to all your power doors and windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Johnson Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 There is a huge plastic molex type plug in the driver side door so it really sucks getting wire through it. It is not just a rubber boot. I think James is talking about the top of this plug there is a rubber plug that has a bolt under it that is the ground for the door. All I know is that the drivers door not being normal has stopped me from adding a couple sets of speakers to each door. I am looking forward to the rest of this and advice others give to get past this obstacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get to that step you'll see what I mean. i opened it up and it looks wierd, it looks like a shower with tiny holes. its impossible to run it through there. so what i did was i run it through the rubber boot, routed it outside then to the plastic thing, i made a hole using a dremel that fits the speakerwire.. its hard to understand but ill show you some pics when i get a chance. busy on school work. looks nice man!!! funny shit, i had a king of the hill flash back so are you chinese or japanese, me Laotian, the ocean what ocean, from laos stupid land lost country by south east asia so are you chinese or japanese haha love it.. jp man just messin with ya lol proud filipino here.you know Projekt AI? our house is near their shop lookin great man, will this be done for the show on the 15th?yup it will be.are you 100%? pretty much exactly what i told him but i guess it was confusing. that bolt i spoke of on top dont mess with it, as its a ground to all your power doors and windowsactually i losen up the bolt and it just shows you that its impossible to run it inside that black plastic thing.ill show the pics when i get the chance.
