Thanks for the reply.

I am trying to wire component speaker in front door to my amp in the trunk using my own wire. I know how to wire from HU to the trunk but I have no idea how to get the wire into the front doors. So I was thinking if someone can let me know how to run wire from the front door to the HU, I can run it to the trunk. Or the way to run wire from the front door directly to the trunk...

It would be really helpful if someone can give me bit of instruction on how to do this. Thanks.

Alright... I wish I had a digicam but i'll try and explain it....

First off get the door panel off (Follow The DIY)

Open the door.... You'll see a black rubber tube going from the door to the body off the car.

Pull the carpet back and take off the two fuse covers..

Find that hole and fish a coat hanger through theat rubber tube...

MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE A SHARP EDGE

Attach the wire to the hanger and pull it through.

Follow the DIY for the HU removal. or if you're going to the trunk fish the wire under the carpet

Thank you so much.

I never worked with car stereo before... I just wanted to get as much information as possible before I get to work on it.

Now on a passenger side door, does panel underneath the glove box come off?

everything he said except instead of a coat hanger use a 24" zip tie. its a lot more flexable and won't get caught all the time when you try to fish it through
