The LEAST desireable part of this install was routing wires throughout the vehicle (i.e., firewall, back seat, door sills, floor and footwell as well as dash and console). I did not care to take on the additional task of running new speaker wires, as the OEM wiring was suitable for this application. Tracing the speaker leads from the OEM amp side saved me the headache.

Only the subwoofer required a larger gauge wire, and that was already supplied with the install kit.
