Ok, I'm replacing the entire Bose system in my Maxima. It's a 2002 SE TE. Now, how exactly can I wire the door speakers. I will not be using any Bose components, so when I take out the amps I know the connection to the factory harness will be lost. I was going to just run fresh wires, but with the disconnect harness designed to easily remove the door from the body, it's impossible the way I see it. Where can I "splice" into the wires running into all 4 doors with relative ease?

Just drill holes use wire loom e-tape and grommets.

It is possible, just grab em in the kick panels.

If you need to run new wires (I did), then there is a little grommet in front of the molex plug in the front door jambs. You can see it if you open your door all the way and then look between the door and the fender on the door jamb. The easiest way to get to it is to remove the front wheels and pull back the inner wheel well.

It works like a charm. No hole drilling etc...

For the rear, just pass the new wire through the existing rubber boot. Easier if you spray some lubricant (Armor All works) down the rubber first.

I just used the factory wiring. Hooked the aftermarket amp to the stock wires as they come outta the bose amp in the trunk.
