2003 g35c Bose (Blowes) amp Bypass?
I wanted to do a DD install but don't want to get a new amp nor do I want to use the factory amp. Can I just do amp bypass? If so how? Thanks all Photos of bypass would be great.
Your new headunit won't have 6 powered channels, so you're going to have to get another amp or keep the bose powering a couple channels.
You can get a cheap 6-channel amp to replace the Bose for under $300http://www.woofersetc.com/p8649/STL6620--Soundstream-6-Channel-620-Watt-Stealth-Amplifier.htm and not worry about your channel that relies on the Bose amp sounding even crappier and with more noise than before, since your new headunit isn't outputting a differential-balanced signal.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone who bypassed it post up the pictures, and I'm a good 10 hours away from the service manuals to tell you which wires connect with which to bypass though. I'm sure if you search this forum enough, you'll find a previous post of mine with wire colors for that year specified.

Connect the input wires to the matching (speaker/polarity) to output wires.
For example: The input of the Left+ should connect to the output of Left+
The input of the Right+ should connect to the output of Right+
For example: The input of the Left+ should connect to the output of Left+
The input of the Right+ should connect to the output of Right+
I had one wire left over it was light blue teal. Do I leave it alone?
