Do they happen to make a wiring harness that plugs into the OEM "output" harness for the bose amp?
i.e. install a 4-channel amp in the trunk, replace the bose amp, and use the factory wiring without splicing/cutting or otherwise destroying the oem wiring?

I've searched far and wide for harnesses that would fit in the rear trunk bose amp harness and harnesses for the speaker connectors. There is NOTHING. It seems like the harness is very similar to some GM HU connectors so I was thinking of picking up a GM harness but it probably won't work.
If you wanna be minimally invasive, just cut off the plastic insulators from the wires and solder on your wire to splice. Tape off and run your amp completely disconnected from the Bose amp. When you want to return to stock, just disconnect all your stereo connections or just cut off the spliced wires and reconnect the bose harness. That's basically what I did.

That wouldn't be stable enough. It's not really a big deal going into the factory harness. If you just solder onto the wires you're not really chopping it up, just tapping. If you really are against going into the wires, you could find a spare bose amp, open it up, chop off the connector, and make a break out box with it. some of the older nissan bose amps have the same connectors. Even some old GM bose amps do.

And yeah, I will probably end up just tapping the oem wire.
