Can you give a little more detail on where exactly everything is going?

it's pretty simple. Fish it to the left side. tuck it under the carpet. To get under it, pull up first on the door sills, then remove the kick panels (these are the panels on the bottom where your feet go). IF you mess up any of the plugs, you can buy them at autozone or any autoparts store.

to get them all the way to the back, take your rear seat off. by pressing the button in the middle of the seat (where your knee is and in between the seats). Pop off any plugs you need to move the wires around to the back! Good Luck!

Thanks...that helps alot

My only last question...Can i follow the existing cables under the steering wheel and THEN go down into the carpet, or do i have to put it under the carpet Immediately after fishing it fromt he head unit?

from the head unit, just go way back towards the firewall and tuck under.

If you don't wanna run a remote wire you can also use a low voltage trigger wire near your amp, but all of this is not for a beginner.

Just don't try to replace your rear speakers on your own. For 07+ they are a pain!!!! you have to take seatbelts off, side panels, almost everything to get the deck lid off. Then you need to use something small to get the t20 screws off! Oh yeah, might as well get a t20 socket now.
