I have found an RCA patch cable in my trunk under the carpet that looks to be just as old as the car itself. anty one know anything about it? did nissan put those back there? I have one more. How do you replace the rear speakers? i am not sure about it and do not want to tear anything up.

 

Just tell me how fast you want to go, uh 'bout 150
No, Nissan did not put that there

 

Yeah, there's no factory RCA patch cable. Not knowing the *YEAR* of your Maxima:
3rd gen: rear speakers unsrew from underneath, in the trunk.
4th gen: remove rear seat, lift up parcel shelf , speakers unscrew from the top.
5th gen: dunno.

 

it is a 4th gen car , a 1997 se. thanks for the directions and help.
