im buying a cd player and taking out the stock....would maxima harness work on bose speakers and the amp....or i have to change the speakers or buy wires to connect to each speaker. I need advice that have done thing..put a new cd but kept the bose system....

 

You will have to replace the speakers, but only becasue of the low ohmage of the Bose speakers.

But you can use the existing wiring if you tap them before the amps or remove the amps entirely. Thats what i did. Just look @ what color is + and what is - at the head unit and make sure to wire em up in phase.


I attempted to keep the bose speakers, and it worked with my first head unit. An old sony CD player but it was pretty quiet even at full volume, However when i got a new head unit, you couldnt hear anything even @ full volume so i replaced the bose then. Some org members told me that the low ohmage would fry the sont head unit if left connected for long enough.

So basically try it and if it works great, if not replace the speakers.
