I’m having difficulty type in this message because I ran fresh 12g speaker wire to my driver’s door last night, my hands are now deformed in ways I never thought possible. This weekend I’ll do the passenger door.

OMG, I’ve run wire before this was the worst. Just wanted to rant.

 

Yeah, I've soaked my hands in ice water after working late. BTW it gets worse as you get older...

 

Ha Ha. I couldn’t agree more. I’ve done at least 10 installs (mostly my cars and friends) and each time it gets more complicated and harder. There are more electronics, tighter spaces to work with, and because there are more electronics, their just enough space on the dash for all these stuffs. It just makes running wires that much harder!

 

Shortly I will be installing my system and tackling the same feat you just did. Did you run the wire through the molex plugs along with the OEM wiring or around the plugs? Thanks for input.

 

Hi,
After farting with the molex plug i noticed a rubber grommit just behind the molex plug, if you pop that rubber cap out, i ran the wire through that and into a little hole I made in the door harness. I have black hose to protect the wire so it looks stock.

 

There is a great thread with pics on this.
