How to get speaker wires into the door of s13?

[ChukiChukka]

Is there a trick to feeding speaker wires from amplifier into the doors?

I went through the rubber seal for the harness/stock speaker leads. I had twisted 12 gauge wire, it was thick, and it was a PITA to feed through.

I use what is left of a really big zip tie for fishing wires through. An old antenna works well too.

Did you try taking off the door?

Thanks all, I found the gromets, made new holes, n did it up proper. Also found a sweet spot for my crossover....on the passenger side at least. (I havent done the driver side yet). I basically glued the crossover onto that metal electric box thing near the passengers right foot, behind that panel. thanks all

Heh, don't be surprised if you have horrible engine noise even with the radio off.

I chose the wrong spot eh? Is it really gonna mess with the ECU? Is there any material I can use to block any interference? GAHH I hope the glue I used sucks...

I found a good spot on the driver side (I think). I set the crossover under the dash by the pedels. Didnt need to unscrew anything. Perfect flat plasic area, not TOO close to any other wiring or electrical stuff. Just gotta find a spot to zip tie the speaker wire down so it doesnt hang around by my feet. I hope this info can help someone else looking for a legit crossover spot.

Tin foil can help, or you could just move it into the door or dash.
