Wiring Color Under the Seat 2008.5

[TippytheHippy]

I know there was a wiring schematic for the Non-BOSE system, but that isn't what I need.

Does anyone have the wiringdiagram or the link for the BOSE system. I may have seen one here before but now I can't find it. I would truly appreciate it.

I would like the:
Under the Passenger Seat
Under the driver Seat and
Behind the HU (BOSE only)

Any help will b appreciated.

Thank you very much.

Which would you tap for the 5.25 under the seat?(cool)

err what exactly are you looking to do? i'm not following you.

what i did was i completely removed the bose amp, and spliced in my own amp (eclipse xa4000)

This is what I have: Stealth box (where the jack goes), P200-2 Punch amp, One Punch 8" (4ohms), 1" Fosgate tweets and caps for doors, Inductors for the doors, and a PAC line tap converter.

This is what I was thinking about doing: I was going to install tweets w/caps to get rid of the flat highs, I was going to install inductors to clean up the muddy doors, I was planning on tapping the BLOSE woofer under the seat with the PAC and the running RCA's to the back and connecting the amp and sub, but leave the BLOSE attached. Just wondering what color the BLOSE 5.25 wire colors are? Also, if you see a way that would sound better with what I have let me know. I am looking for a little kick, but I understand that this will not create an audiophile type sound. Just better....I hope. Again, thank you for your help.

i dont know if i'd tap the line going to the bose sub. instead, i'd T connect into the rear speaker pre-amps of the bose amp, and take that line to your own amplifier for your sub. you don't really know what the bose amp is doing to frequency response of the signal going to the 5.25 under the passenger seat so it may make your sub sound like sh*t

So let me see if I have this right: Tap into the rear speaker pre-amps. If I am confused, could you please clear up which pin #'s and I will decipher the colors from the chart you sent me. Thanks again for your time.

The "To amp" Pins for the rear Pre-amps are: Pin# 5,6,7,8 (I am thinking these may be what you mean) Am I correct? Aren't these the ones I should tap? Looks like Obama won. I hope he doesn't tighten gun control!(usa)

 

[cow_like_object]

yeah you can tap 5,6,7,8 from the HU wiring.doc which would be the wires behind the headunit OR, the same wires that are going in near the amp. which would be 15,16,17,18 on the amp wiring.doc

they are of course the same wires, just look at the color, and figure out where you want to T into, behind the headunit or under the drivers seat. You'll probably have to remove the seat to get to the wires though.

Cow Like Object you my friend have helped indeed! Thank you!

Do you know what the post-amp wiring colors are or where I could find them? I think I want to attach the high end inputs off my rockford 300S amp to the BOSE post amp wiring for the rear door speakers. Thanks!

 

[hollywood0027]

Turns out it is the same color as the stock M3 colors. Found this on http://www.modifiedlife.com/2007-mazda-3-car-radio-wiring-diagram/
After running several tests on them, I have decided to run my inputs from these. I'll write a how-to once I get it done.

 

[cow_like_object]

you' probably be better off using the pre-bose-amp inputs for better sound quality. every time you add another of these devices in, you'll introduce more noise into the system and the response of the bose amp to the rear speakers probably isn't flat.

So, I have my single channel amp powering my subs tapped into my front speakers cuz I read somewhere that those were the ones to tap into. It sounds ok to me, but should I be tapping into the rear instead (before bose amp of course)? Or does it matter until I add a 4 channel amp.

 

[cow_like_object]

nah, it shouldnt be a problem at all
