98 EX//getting wire into the door?
Its a 98 EX coupe. I need to get a few new wires into the doors and I am having trouble doing so. I have pulled apart the kick panel, and taken out the glove box, plus taken all the other panels off of the dash. I cannot see how I am going to get a new wrie throught the factory rubber grommet thing.
Anyone got any tricks? Other than taking the heater/AC stuff and the ECU out? Or the taking the front fenders off and fishing the new wires through the grommets. I dont want to have to do eaither of those. I was hoping like hell that someone had a magic answer.
Any help earns my gratitude.

You're most likely not going to be able to do it. The car has a wire harness and the door plugs in, you can't just run a new wire into the door. I had to pull everything apart and install new connectors with extra pins for an extra wire when I put in my components... it took me a full day, and I'm an electrical engineer. Your best bet is to just stash the crossovers in the door and use the factory speaker wires.

I ran new wiresd in my doors. not worth it in my opinion. Pull the fenders off for much easier access, or pull out the Molex plugs and drill REALLY carfully through an empty pin area. When my fenders were being painted I drilled through the door and body, put new grommets in, ran the wires through the boot inside the door jamb.
